When you think of a cemetery, which is the first image you see in your mind? More than likely, this is a photo of a large, extended care ha full of headstones, statues, follies, monuments and mausoleums. This image instead of the cemetery in Victoria that permeates the images of the traditional final resting place. Years later, some cemeteries have chosen to eliminate congestion and architecture provided by tombstones in favor of a more modern and efficient metal or stone slabs at ground level. Other cemeteries Specialized prefer all the graves to be marked with monuments, matching an identical line crosses or Stars of David etc
Yes, there is a certain nostalgia and comfort in these familiar images of the baseboard and the obelisks of the Victorian era to the emergence Spartan cemetery "modern".
However, after careful consideration, right? We have stone that has been removed and taken elsewhere at great cost. The strip mining process of land in perfect condition, digging holes and caves in the earth irreparable would be better used for other. We have a landscape cut by a machine that uses the value of oil We have a land full of chemicals against nature, an ecosystem disrupted by concrete and plastic domes to increase artificially the earth and maintain the natural processes of erosion out.
The green burial, land is often left to grow naturally free of pesticides for control of bad herbs, free of non-natural materials, free to grow and evolve as intended. More often, the green burial pits are dug by hand, not by machines dangerous and expensive.
As I mentioned, the objective of eco-friendly Burial is to preserve the earth for the body to the earth which will provide the nutrition of plants growing on earth and the organisms that live below.
So, looking at a green cemetery in this perspective, it is fair that we leave monuments to mark the location of the burial of a loved one should be as natural and not destructive. Remember, green burial is a celebration of life.
Well of course, We can not minimize the importance of having a marker on the grave, something to say "our loved one is buried here," some thing to say: "We remember.
However, a stone monument need not be expensive that the stone was stolen from other land, must not be a bronze plaque made at great expense. Really to celebrate life, the stone in a green burial is something sustainable, not detrimental to the earth, and, more important, something worthy of the person buried beneath.
Each cemetery will be green recommendations on the types of markers are acceptable. However, here are some ideas to green markers and monuments that serve as a reminder of the life they are honoring.
1. A tree native to the region, planted in honor of the dead, a tree will be powered by the gesture of returning the love body to the earth.
2. Native plants.
3. A rock or stone that are in the same location was carved the name of the deceased.
4. A plant which has a special meaning or symbolism to the deceased.
5. A tree trunk or log are in the region, rooted in the nature, that can be inscribed with the name of your loved one.
6. A re-mark from reclaimed or salvaged wood, in time, also deteriorate.
7. A cluster design or made of small stones on the ground.
8. A wooden bird feeder from natural reclaimed wood.
9. Nothing.
The latter might seem surprising, but many who are supporters of green burial rather see nature take its course without interruptions. It only knows the general area where his family is buried is enough for them. They were reassured to see the earth and grow unimpeded.
