Another great article that explains water cremation.
What is water cremation and why did it take nearly seven years to bring it to Aotearoa?
In this episode, Belinda speaks with Debbie Richards, a former nurse and midwife who helped legalise water cremation in New Zealand. Her goal was to create a gentler, more sustainable and more affordable option for families at the end of life.
Debbie explains how water cremation works, what makes it so different and why this option is growing in popularity around the world. She also shares the deeply personal story behind her fight to bring this to life and what it took to get there.
If you're thinking about legacy, climate, or what it means to care even after someone has died, this conversation is for you.
