Every year, I participate in the Conference on National Affairs, which is a Youth and Government program that takes place in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina and 25 students from most states participate. Each delegate researches and writes a creative proposal of national or international importance to debate at the conference. This year, my proposal is to incentivize green burials, biodegradable coffins, and burial pods. I compiled my research into this infographic to provide some basic information and reasoning behind my proposal.
