Biodegradable and ecological urns

Many people plant a tree when a loved one dies. In a way, it is a way to continue life and for something of the person to remain alive and giving beauty.

This custom has a long history, to the point that today there are some Biodegradable urns that allow a tree to grow from the remains.

A green idea

The idea is that matter is transformed and thus the mortal remains of the urn coexist with a pine seed that begins to develop and thus the tree is formed. The name of this urn is Bios and the starting point is the natural cycle and the possibility of death becoming a new life.

Moreover, these urns are much cheaper than the costs of a traditional funeral and do not pollute the environment. On the contrary, a green burial is carried out in which no embalming fluids are used that pollute the planet.

There are several urns of this style and one of them even takes care of the second step: transplanting the tree once it has grown in the urn. When you are already large enough to be outdoors, the transplant is done with a biodegradable pot that disappears alone so that no trace of its passage through the garden remains.

A new way to remember

The funeral industry is changing and proof of them are the examples mentioned but there are also the ecological cemeterieswhere they rest biodegradable urns instead of traditional stone headstones. In this way, the trees that grow when the remains feed the seeds inside the urns are transformed into the best memory of loved ones.

The ecological cemeteries come from the oriental culture because in countries like China or Japan most of the deceased people are cremated. On the other hand, they seek to preserve the environment through the planting and conservation of trees, plants and flowers in order to perpetuate life.
