We're on the List: Top 10 Worst Places to Live in the U.S. for Air Pollution
On today’s episode, Lauren and Katie chat about air pollution and the adverse impacts it has on both the mental and physical health of millions of U.S. residents. They highlight research showing the correlation between air pollution and health and they connect the dots to racism and injustice, focusing especially on regions where Faith in Place works. Aiding their conversation is an article recently published by The Guardian that revealed the top 10 worst places in the U.S. for air quality (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/mar/08/10-most-air-polluted-places-to-live-us). The team also shares stories from their lived experiences that add depth to a topic that can be broad and ambiguous.

What is Natural Burial?
In today’s episode, your hosts Katie Maxwell and Lauren Paris discuss natural burial from a US perspective. We describe the basics of green burial and cite many experts and their resources for learning about the topic further. We had so many links we wanted to share and not enough room to share them here in the caption that we decided to make a blog post where you can find all of them. Read that blog here: https://www.faithinplace.org/post/what-is-natural-burial. (https://www.faithinplace.org/post/what-is-natural-burial)
A few important disclaimers: Please note that the discussion does generally cover what happens to a body when someone dies. We also intentionally created this space to be one that is affirming of any choice that you or a loved one has made about burial. We are not here to pass judgment, but rather to provide an informational resource so that you, the listener, can make the most informed decision about what you want to have happen to your body when you die.
