2010-07-14 - How large of a carbon footprint do you wish to leave? This seems to be a question more people are posing to themselves as they become more socially and environmentally aware. We hear it everywhere, to protect the environment, recycle, reuse and so on. Mike and I have asked ourselves the same questions and although we can get overwhelmed by all that we can do, we decided to take it step by step. Our first step was to replace our fleet of vehicles with more economically and gas friendly ones. This has been done quite successfully. Our next step was to find a way to offer our families the same option of going green. It has taken awhile but we are now one of the first funeral homes in Newfoundland and Labrador, and the only one here in Central Newfoundland, to offer our families a totally “Green” option. We can now offer stationary that is 100% recycled, our embalming procedure is a totally environmentally friendly chemical. It has taken our supply company 5 years to develop this product, so that it will still provide all the benefits and not be harsh on the environment, to a casket that is made with no metal, a finish that is made from vegetable oil, to recycle materials for the interior, all while still holding to our high standards of quality and appearance. This casket is manufactured to the standard and is labeled as “Green” So please if you have any questions or would like to further look into this option please call us at 709-489-3880 or email us centralfuneralhome@nf.aibn.com
