Continued from Page A25 CANA Pandemic Data and 2030 Predictions that we can anticipate lower death and cremation numbers over the coming years—because many of the additional 2020 deaths were premature—but that the cremation rate will continue to follow predicted trends. As CANA has noted in prior years, only new consumer preferences, such as body donation and green burial, are likely to impact cremation growth regionally or nationally. 2016 Cremation Rates 2020 Cremation Rates 2016 Cremation Rates 2020 Cremation Rates predicts the U.S. cremation rate will reach 65.2% and 72.8% in 2030. In Canada, where the crema- tion rate grows an average of 1.1%, 2025 is pre- dicted at 76.8%. The association’s statistics consultant believes The Cremation Association of North America (CANA) has been tracking national cremation statistics in the U.S. and Canada since our founding in 1913. Based on this data, CANA creates annual statistics reports to document consumer preferences and measure the steady growth of cremation rates across North Ameri- ca. CANA Research is often used by the media to shape their articles and by CANA’s members to guide their fu- ture business plans.
