Capsula Mundi:The Eco-Friendly Coffin That Returns Bodies To Nature塵歸塵,土歸土:蛋葬


【摘要2019.11.27.蘋果】
The Capsula Mundi burial pod is made of natural, biodegradable materials, but its biggest feature is what will remain above ground: a tree. A dead person is placed inside the egg-shaped capsule, which is then buried in the ground, much like a seed.
A tree, which can be selected by the deceased before death, is then planted over it. As it grows, the tree becomes a living marker that family and friends can continue to care for.
蛋葬的埋葬容器是由天然並可被生物分解的原料製成,但其最大特色是會保留在陸地上的東西──一棵樹。往生者會被置於蛋狀的膠囊裡,接著會宛如一顆種子般地被掩埋至土裡。
一棵由往生者生前挑選好的樹木會被種植在上方。隨著樹木成長,它就成了親友能持續關照的一個活生生的標誌。
