As a Minister and Celebrant, I strive to be sustainable in order to protect the environment and keep my service costs down.

Here are the measures I take to achieve this:

• My office is powered by solar panels and renewable energy whenever possible.

• I limit my travel to only what is necessary. When possible, I will travel in the funeral car (hearse) to reduce additional transportation.
• Family meetings are conducted via Zoom, FaceTime, or WhatsApp video calls whenever possible. If an in-person meeting is necessary, I will visit the family.
• All scripts are produced electronically to minimize paper usage; I aim to be as paper-free as possible.
• I do not provide pens or giveaway items, as these are often not environmentally friendly.
• If any materials need to be printed, I always use recycled paper.
• I recycle items used during services, such as flags, scarves, and reusable solar-powered candles, whenever possible.

If we all do our part, we can make a significant difference.
