"Death" is a word that people don't want to touch, but it is a necessary process in life. I believe everyone has thought in their hearts, what they expect their life to be like, and also imagined reaching the end of life. At that moment, how would you like to leave? There are many forms of burial that we are familiar with, such as cremation, burial, burial at sea, etc., but most of them will cause harm to the environment. The Italian company Capsula Mundi has developed a new environmentally friendly burial type that gives us an opportunity. Do your best to nourish a tree.
The environmentally friendly burial method developed by Capsula Mundi puts the deceased into a sealed egg-shaped container, just like returning to the original womb, replacing the previous coffin form and burying it underground. And plant a tree on top of the egg-shaped container, let the tree grow and absorb the nutrients from the capsule, and grow strong.
In the past, we would erect tombstones for the deceased and eventually become a cemetery. However, this new research and development will turn the cemetery into a forest, allowing life to continue to cycle in different postures.
Customers who choose this environmentally friendly burial method can choose their favorite tree species.
Cycle illustration of environmentally friendly burial methods. The appearance of the legs wrapped around the egg-shaped container is like the appearance in the womb when life is about to be born. Although the deceased will not break out of the egg, it can deliver nutrients to the trees planted on the egg-shaped container. , as the tree grows, it will continue to take root downwards, just like handing over its lost life to a tree, and continue to cycle in nature.
Because of the different types of trees selected, the forest created will be full of diversity.
Italian law does not yet allow this type of burial, so this environmentally friendly burial method is still just a concept and cannot be implemented. If this concept can come true, in addition to letting people return to nature, environmental protection, and greening, I believe that when cutting down trees, we will also think more and know how to respect different forms of life.
