- snerbles 10y agoGenerally, it's a matter of the rights of landowners versus state-enforced restrictions on behalf of the environment. Aside from the legal gimmick of selling burials to deter future exploitation of the land, Green Burial Council appears to be little more than a private nature reserve. From what the article describes they aren't encroaching on other landowners, and there aren't any special government sanctions on their behalf. Mostly harmless, when viewed in isolation.
