There's a biodegradable urn that contains a tree seed and absorbs the nutrients in
your ashes. Gerard Moline has created the Bios Urn. It's a biodegradable urn made from coconut shell, compacted peat and cellulose. Inside of it is a tree seed. Once the person's remains are placed in the urn, it can be planted. If all goes as planned, the seed will germinate and begin to grow. You can even choose the type of tree you would like to have grow from your remains. So what sounds better, leaving behind a tree or a tombstone?
