Creating your own funeral song list
If you are someone who wants to pre-plan your own funeral, one important aspect you should be looking into is the music that is to be played.

So, to help people who will be arranging your funeral, you can create a Spotify playlist of your songs. There are websites that help you do so and include pictures, videos, and other memorabilia along with the playlist.
Casket as Photobucket
The caskets in a funeral often give people a morbid feel, which is why now there are companies specializing in turning caskets into memorable visual homage. Images from the deceased’s life or nature’s images are printed in high-resolution and wrapped around the casket to make the funeral more memorable and personal for the people attending it.
Turn urns into seedlings
If you are someone who lived a life in consideration of your carbon footprint and thinking about your environment, now you can give back more even after you pass away. There are companies that offer urns that are biodegradable and have a region-specific seedling in them. Along with it, they add wood chips, and soils mixed with products that will neutralize the chemical effects of the cremated remains. The seeds then have more chance of taking root which then can be transplanted into an area of your choice. This way, you or your loved one will be there in form of a tree.
Become part of a coral reef
Now there are companies that turn the cremated remains of your loved one into part of a growing coral reef. The remains are mixed with reef structure, a process which the family members can also attend and participate in, and then personalized with a message that you can write on the wet cement. Then they are placed on the seafloor to make houses for fish.
Flameless cremation
Though cremation is a better environmental choice than burial, it still leaves a good amount of carbon footprint. The greener solution to it is flameless cremation where the body is immersed in an alkaline hydrolysis solution which dissolves the body leaving behind little remains. It is slowly gaining popularity fast and is now legal in 15 States.
