Make eco burials (composting human remains with tree planting) easier to access.
With concerns about environmental issues there's growing interest around the world in eco burials. This process involves careful composting of human remains and planting tree saplings using this nutrient-rich compost.
Government backing and easing of restrictions could help this industry grow

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand you're concerned about making eco burials more accessible but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The Government has published guidance for operators of natural burial grounds. This sets out the legal requirements. You can find out more here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do to ease access to eco burials.
