=====Conservation burial===== Conservation burial is a type of burial where burial fees fund the acquisition and management of new land to benefit native habitat, ecosystems and species.<ref name=":9" /> This usually involves a legal document such as a [[conservation easement]]. Such burials go beyond other forms of natural burial, which aim to prevent environmental damage caused by conventional burial techniques, by actually increasing benefits for the environment.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Harker|first=A|date=2012|title=Landscapes of the Dead: An Argument for Conservation Burial|journal=Berkeley Planning Journal|volume=25|pages=150β159|doi=10.5070/BP325111923|s2cid=131349447|url=https://escholarship.org/content/qt7br0d6c3/qt7br0d6c3.pdf?t=poodm5}}</ref> The idea is for the burial process to be a net positive for the earth rather than just neutral. Scientists have argued that such burials could potentially generate enough funds to save every endangered species on the planet.<ref name=":9" /> The Green Burial Council certifies natural and conservation burial grounds in the U.S. and Canada.<ref>{{cite web |title=Our Standards |url=https://www.greenburialcouncil.org/our_standards.html |publisher=Green Burial Council}}</ref>
