Dr. Daniel Annin asked his partner four years ago to buy out his share of their veterinary practice in Omaha, Nebraska, so that he could dedicate more time to his deceased patients.
While Annin still cares for living patients part-time, his primary focus now is Eco Animal Cremation, an enterprise offering aquamation. Technically called alkaline hydrolysis, the process involves dissolving bodies of the deceased in water.
Annin and others describe aquamation as an increasingly popular alternative to conventional burial and cremation, and say it is better for the environment because it has a relatively small carbon footprint - link - Emma Scher - link
