We are Bringing a New Option to Michigan 

Death can be an uncomfortable topic, but it’s something we’ll all need to address sooner or later.  In life, we know the importance of living sustainably and taking care of the planet.

But what about in death? You can ensure that your last act on earth honors your values and gives back.

We could not agree more.  And NOR4Michigan was born.

One of our goals is to create a coalition of people all over Michigan to give voice to green burial options, normalize the conversation and create legislation to allow Natural Organic Reduction (aka human composting) in Michigan.

Simply email us at NOR4Michigan@gmail.com to become part of this important effort and join our quarterly Zoom calls.  The calls are informative and contain topics such as which funeral homes support green burial, where can you find a cemetery that allows green burials, and more importantly, what can you do to help bring natural organic reduction to Michigan.

Imagine, our bodies could become a fertile source of new life. Perhaps we could change how we view a corpse.  We could begin to view it as our bodies, in their very decomposition, now becomes useful and benefits our soils as well our planet.
 
The way we live impacts the world and we would like to have our death contribute to the wellbeing of our planet.
 
Please consider joining us in this effort to bring NOR legislation to our beautiful state we call home and improve our green burial options.
