Shortage of Space in Graveyards by 2050

[Srikanth]

when it happens in heavily populated muslim countries like malaysia, pakistan, bangladesh etc then they will realise.
europe and north america still have lot of land left

[Star Dust]

this is how dead bodies are stacked in spain.
soon this will happen in other countries where dead are buried





then people will mention in their \'WILL\' about a major share of their savings buying their stack space and nobody will \'REST IN PEACE\' above each other

Vulture count down, more Parsis go for burial, cremation

Facing a growing crisis over the lack of enough vultures to consume corpses at the traditional Towers of Silence, a small band of "reformists", including priests, from the shrinking community of Parsi Irani Zoroastrians have begun supporting alternate modes of disposing the dead.
For the first time, some priests have agreed to perform last rites even for those who have been cremated or buried at a new Rs 1.5-crore prayer hall that will become fully functional from this month-end.
This gradually swelling group includes priests who had earlier flatly refused to pray for the dead during the four-day mourning period if the body was buried or cremated, which is strictly prohibited in the community.
Among them is Dastur Framroze S Mirza who has invoked the ire of the Bombay Parsi Panchayat for breaking with tradition.

World population in 2020 could be close to 8 billion (800 crores). More than 60% are abrahamic religion followers who want their dead bodies to to buried.
In next 40-50 years this present generation will naturally die. So by 2060-2070, we will have about 500 crore (5 billion) graves and so much space on earth wasted for burying the dead.
So, after 2060 there is hardly any place left for natural forests, agriculture, cities and towns to build houses etc.

So if people do not shift towards cremation, nature will eliminate them to save space on earth in next 30-40 years.
Few are dreaming to have their faith take over multiple countries and it will die with them.

Pandemics like corona are the only solution to these real-estate mafia who want you to bury and also buy your own burial space with all your savings at old age.
Already multi-floor grave apartments are normal in many such countries.


Only when people fear of Virus spreading from dead bodies too, they will burn them
