In the face of sky-high cemetery, how to achieve "applause and seat-calling" for land-saving ecological burial?

Facing the sky-high cemetery, many people say that they dare not die no matter how tired they live, because they can't afford to die. Why, it's not too expensive. The cemetery in the third-and fourth-tier cities should be sold for10.4 million per square meter, and a cemetery should cost at least 40,000 yuan. The price of traditional cemeteries exceeds the house price.

As the country continues to promote the reform of funeral and interment, many people give up traditional cemeteries and choose ecological cemeteries instead, but most people still hope to be able to? Rest in peace? Choose a traditional cemetery.

Ecological cemetery refers to burying the ashes of the deceased directly under green trees and red flowers, without tombstones and graves. This kind of cemetery is not only environmentally friendly and land-saving, but also cheap. Many cities have introduced this kind of ecological cemetery, but the ecological cemetery in many places is not good.

People don't realize that ecological cemeteries are also related to their cities. For example, the land resources in the northeast coastal areas are very tight, and the price of traditional cemeteries is very high. A cemetery may sell for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. Many ordinary people simply can't afford it. The local government vigorously promoted ecological burial, increased subsidies, and the people's concept was more advanced. Combined with these comprehensive factors, the implementation of ecological cemetery is very optimistic. But it is difficult to implement in the midwest.

For example, in a cemetery in Gansu, each ecological cemetery only needs 4000-8000, which is more than half lower than that of the traditional cemetery. However, after two years of implementation, only less than 100 copies have been sold.

Another example is a cemetery in Guangxi. Last year, ecological burial was carried out in the form of ashes scattered in the sea, flower burial and tree burial. 2500 copies of ashes are buried in one year, an increase of 15% over the past.

Nowadays, many cities require that every cemetery should be equipped with an ecological cemetery. Some cemeteries also consider long-term development, and some traditional cemeteries turn to ecological cemeteries. However, compared with the strong will of the state, local governments and industries to vigorously promote ecological funeral, the market demand still cannot be compared with traditional funeral.

Ordinary families are often more traditional. Most people think that the traditional cemetery is not only a ritual, but also a spiritual sustenance. When you want to worship, you must always find a place to worship. Traditional funeral customs have existed for thousands of years and cannot be broken overnight. It is a long-term process that the Millennium old customs need to be reformed. Only when policies and services are put in place can ecological funeral be applauded and won.
