There are two main choices after death—cremation and burial.

Colorado legislators are introducing a bill that would provide a third legal option. 

Colorado’s General Assembly will consider a bill this coming session that would let Coloradans choose to turn their bodies into soil. 

 Colorado would become only the second state to allow the process, known as “Natural Organic Reduction.”

Natural Organic Reduction is said to be more environmentally sound than burial or cremation.
