Unlike traditional cremation, which releases carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the atmosphere, aquamation produces no harmful emissions and uses significantly less energy. Additionally, the remaining liquid solution is completely safe and can be safely disposed of or even used as a fertilizer for plants. Furthermore, aquamation is a much gentler process for the body, as it is not exposed to high temperatures like in traditional cremation. This can be comforting to those who are concerned about the idea of their loved one undergoing a harsh and potentially distressing cremation process.
