We recently lost someone unexpectedly and they did not leave us with clear instructions. It was rough going trying to arrange things. I don't want to leave my family that burden when I go.

    There's alkaline hydrolysis - It's legal in 19 states, and the process is much less energy intensive than cremation. Your loved ones would be left with some ash remains, while you can also use the fluid remains as fertilizer. It's kinda controversial (you can choose to have your fluid remains disposed of as sewage, which is kinda horrifying to me) but I'd say it has lots of upsides if done correctly.
