I dont want to be embalmed after death, Is it legal to be buried without a casket in the US?

I dunno about without a casket, but you don't have to be embalmed and you can be placed in a biodegradable coffin.

Then get cremated. Problem solved..

there are new innovative technologies being developed that are more natural and basically turn the body into compost. there is also some kind of water technique but I really don't know anything about it. there are new alternatives, that's all I know.

Local laws vary but in some areas you can be buried in shroud.
It should be something you can request in your will but I dont think its honored. Even unclaimed bodies are embalmed. I'm not sure the legalities in the US
