they do make cardboard coffins - but they're also expensive (Titan, the company shown in the OP for example, sells one that is $500)
You might as well just try to die in a state that allows natural burials and just dig a hole in advance lol. The real racket is though that most states that do allow green/natural burials, you still have to purchase a plot in some sort of cemetery. I should be able to just bury myself in the woods surrounding the public park
Are American gravesites really never reused?
Around here the norm is that gravesites are rented. Usually families will pay to keep the plot for as long as the people who knew the deceased are alive and able to tend to the plot. After that it is allowed to expire and be used for new burials.
No, eventually all of America will be a graveyard
I kid, I kid.
