PROBLEM WITH SYNTHETIC DYE¶
In green burials, the emphasis is on environmentally friendly and sustainable practices. Undyed natural fibers are prefered since many conventional fabric dyes contain chemicals and synthetic compounds that can be harmful to the environment. These chemicals may leach into the soil during decomposition, potentially contaminating the surrounding ecosystem.
But burial clothing shouldn't be white only . Natural dyes, derived from plant-based sources, are more eco-friendly compared to synthetic dyes, giving more colour options to burial garments.
