Backyard Green Burial Legislation

What is happening? This week the issue of green burials came up during the January 11th meeting on the Texas Sunset Advisory Commission recommendations for the Texas State Anatomical Board. Washington State legislators this week began consideration of HB 1037 (2023 | WA) to allow green burials on your own property.

Why is this important? We talked about this recently too, green burial policies are very popular.
