Environmental & Sustainability Efforts
बभ में
Implementation of a metals recycling program
where residual metals from the cremation
process are collected and recycled, and a
percentage of the proceeds are donated to
local charities (in 2022, approximately $200,000
was donated).
Implementation of energy conservation
initiatives in buildings and on cemetery
grounds, where feasible (i.e., timed lighting and
watering systems).
Partnering with certain cities/municipalities to
repurpose spoils (extra dirt from cemeteries),
i.e., filling in vacant lots where old houses were
torn down.
Exploring a potential carbon offset program
with PLC's primary vault supplier by adjusting
the manufacturing process to remove the CO2
from the environment and injecting it into the
concrete portion of the vault.
Piloting fuel-efficient methods of
performing lawn care maintenance at
certain cemeteries.
Continuing the replacement of outdated
fleet and equipment with more energy
efficient technologies.
Performing annual emissions air
modeling of certain crematoriums to
track the particles of combustion
released into the atmosphere to assess
environmental performance.
For certain of our cremation businesses,
working with a renewable energy partner
to offset our current footprint by
purchasing carbon credits that
contribute to clean water projects and
grassland conservation.
