minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink10•11 months agoAre people embalming less because cremation is increasing in popularity?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink18•edit-211 months agoYes. The places I worked had about 80% of clients choosing cremation. I assume it’s mostly a cost decision. Cremation does not require a casket or a cemetery plot, which are two very expensive items.

I agree, it always seemed selfish to me.
