Cemeteries are a waste of space and resources.
There’s a deep human need to engage in death-related rituals, and burial is one that’s been around for a very very long time. I do not expect to end the use of burial.
We could start making green burial the norm. No formaldehyde, “air tight” (marketing lie) non -biodegradable caskets (cotton, linen or silk sheet will do) with tree, bush or native plant markers.
Sure, but you have to recognize the inherent unsustainable nature.
There are a lot of options for dealing with that, including the possibility of burying bodies for a century or three, and subsequently moving any bones to an ossuary.
Funerals are for the living.
You can have a funeral without a cemetery.
