Denver residents often do everything possible to live an environmentally conscious lifestyle. That desire to be gentle on the planet does not have to end in death - Be a Tree Cremation, a nature-centric Water Cremation facility in Denver, now offers all-electric transportation from people’s place of death and into the care of Be a Tree.
“Our values are to love every family and to love the planet. When we looked at opportunities to be even more mindful of the planet in our day-to-day operations, transportation of people’s loved ones came to mind. People choose Be a Tree Cremation due to the environmentally-conscious aspect and this Electric Vehicle is one more way we can help people honor their values in death.”
- Emily Nelson, Founder and CEO
Be a Tree Cremation has been proudly offering eco-friendly water cremation to Coloradans for over three years. Water Cremation is an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fire cremation using 90% less energy. The water from the process is returned to the land to nourish the soil at destinations including The Wild Animal Sanctuary and Evergreen Memorial Park. Families can get the remains of their loved one returned in a bamboo urn or solidified into beautiful stones. Be a Tree Cremation is proudly owned and operated by local Colorado women.
