What is the main reason behind Professor Peking University's call for the restoration of burial?
In fact, the reason why the country carried out cremation at the beginning was that cremation not only saved land resources, but also avoided land pollution. After all, the cremated urn is relatively small, which can save a lot of land resources and tree resources. Moreover, during burial, the body will gradually decompose over time, which will also cause great pollution to the environment.
Although in many rural areas, burial is more respected because of ideology, it is a waste of land resources. After all, if we want to carry out burial, we must find a treasure trove of geomantic omen, which is actually rare and not available to everyone.
In addition, burying in a coffin is also a waste of manpower, material resources and financial resources. However, although cremation saves the area of land resources, it also has some disadvantages. For example, in the process of incineration, cremation will actually pollute the environment. In addition, the cemetery is a permanent place, even if it is spent, it will not be cheaper than burial.
Therefore, it is really hard to say which is better, burial or cremation. After all, everything has advantages and disadvantages, not everything has advantages and disadvantages, but depends on the future development. However, when it comes to funerals, it is best to follow the tradition and think more about the people's ideas.
