It is really important to discuss: the use of formaldehyde in embalming. Did you know that formaldehyde, a commonly used chemical in this process, poses serious health and environmental risks?
It's high time we start considering more eco-friendly and health-conscious alternatives. Not only does formaldehyde release harmful fumes into the air during embalming, but it also poses risks to embalmers' health and can contaminate soil and water sources after burial.
There is a green option out there, non-toxic embalming fluid, that can achieve the same preservation results without the negative impacts on our health and planet.
By advocating for the adoption of these green alternatives, we can contribute to a safer and more sustainable way of honoring our loved ones in their final moments. Let's start a conversation about the importance of making this switch and work towards a future where we prioritize both the dignity of the deceased and the well-being of our environment.

Industry standards need to be manageable for family firms as well as big corporations. Regulation might help with aspects of this, but there remain a lot of questions about how to achieve it.
Quis custodiet ipsos custodies?
Who shall guard the guards themselves? Who shall guard the guards themselves? This is a question that arises in many walks of life and applies not just to soldiers and police officers, but to any regulatory body.
