Even in death, Archbishop Tutu continues to advocate for a more equitable, sustainable tomorrow. It is a great honor to file legislation with @Rep_Higgins, in partnership with @recomposelife, to bring this environmentally friendly burial option to MA. npr.org/2022/01/01/106967600…

A plain pine coffin and eco-friendly cremation are the last acts of Desmond Tutu

Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, who died last Sunday, chose to be aquamated, a more environmentally friendly alternative to cremation. It is 90% more energy efficient than a traditional cremation.
