Tree burial is a kind of funeral method that has been handed down since ancient times, and it is more common in some ethnic minority areas. In modern times, tree burial has become a new model of green and environmentally friendly burial adopted by many large cities.

In simple terms, modern tree burial refers to scattering the ashes of the deceased under the tree without erecting a monument. Relatives and friends want to see, just look at the tree.

In many places, tree burials are patches of evergreen trees, and the name is also very common, for example, a pine tree burial forest, you can directly use the small place name of that place and add the green pine garden, or call it the green pine memorial forest. If there are many types of trees, it is often enough to add the word memorial forest directly after the name of the small place.

This mode of tree burial, in principle, is not allowed to set off firecrackers and incense candles, but it is a tradition to set off firecrackers and incense candles, so there will be a special place in such a memorial forest to concentrate on setting off firecrackers and incense candles, as for fruits and flowers, etc., they can still be brought to the tree.

I have to say that according to this method, it is indeed environmentally friendly, it also saves land resources, and more effectively prevents forest fires. However, there are many tree burial methods that are not like this, after all, many people cannot accept scattering the ashes of deceased relatives in the ground under the tree.

Therefore, there is such a way, that is, on the barren mountains with low forest coverage, a piece of mountainous land is set aside, which is managed by an institution, and people who are willing to bury trees can go to the barren mountains according to the planned place to choose a location, bury the urn of the deceased relatives in the soil, and then plant trees on it, and you can also hang a sign on the tree as a sign, and even allow firecrackers and incense candles to be set off in front of the tree - based on this factor, the distance between each tree is not too close, but the effect of afforestation is still there. It's better than a barren mountain.

Speaking of which, tree burial is still a very good method, and because of afforestation and tree adoption, this thing is very meaningful, not only does not charge money, but some wealthy areas also have certain rewards for this.

However, having said that, some places actually still require a little expense, and the reward is the money provided by the treasury, and the management of these trees always requires labor, right? There is always a cost to plant seedlings, right?

Of course, in general, this cost is much cheaper than buying a place in the cemetery on the funeral home.

It's just that it's still a matter of ideology, people don't even want to be cremated, they just need to erect a monument to commemorate it, how can they plant a tree?

Therefore, the method of tree burial, let alone in Anqing, even if it is in Suijiang, it has not been started. However, the provincial capital, Baizhang, is said to have a memorial forest for tree burials.

As the deputy county magistrate in charge of civil affairs, Zhang Wending was really unclear about tree burials before, but the county civil affairs bureau wanted to carry out the reform of centralized burials, and he had a serious understanding of the funeral. Not to mention how thoroughly I understand it, the basic situation is almost touched.

After listening to Zhang Wending's introduction, Mu Jinhua's mouth was crooked, and she sighed: "Such a situation......

She also knows that it is very difficult to change the ideological concept, and everyone is trying to bury them by all means, and they are not even willing to be cremated, and they are still buried in trees?

Of course, if the Anqing County Government comes up with a sum of money and rewards those who choose tree burial, there should be someone who is willing.

However, when the Civil Affairs Bureau reported such a plan, it was originally intended to generate some income in a straightforward manner, so how could it be subsidized in turn?

No matter what the reward is, it is impossible for the county finance to take all the money, and it must be part of the finance, and the civil affairs department itself will also pay a part. The county civil affairs bureau does not want to achieve this result, so the model of tree burial is not suitable for introduction for the time being, and the reasons for the incompatibility will definitely be able to find a lot of them.

Moreover, it is also a question whether the finance of Anqing County is willing to come up with such a sum of money.

There is a funeral parlor, there is also a cemetery, and it is not that there is no place to bury bones, spending that money to make this limelight, which main leader in the county will agree? Not to mention the resistance of grassroots cadres and the broad masses below.

It's obviously a thankless task.

These thoughts flashed in his heart, and without waiting for Zhang Wending to answer, Mu Jinhua said again: "Everything has a process from scratch, from small to large, from less to more. Ah, the reform of the funeral model, this, the inheritance and integration of sacrificial and commemorative cultures, this is a very important thing, and there is a process of social precipitation...... We must be cautious, conscientiously comprehend the spirit of the higher-level documents, and thoroughly understand the relevant policies. Yes. ”

That's an interesting thing to say.

At first, it sounded like she wanted Zhang Wending to try to implement the tree burial model in Anqing, although there was no turning point in her words, but later, it meant a bit like not objecting to Zhang Wending's original idea of engaging in centralized burial. Just remind him not to do it blindly, but to bring in a higher-level leader or higher-level unit, and then to study the relevant policies and documents carefully to see if there are any loopholes to exploit.

For Zhang Wending's centralized burial, Mu Jinhua was surprised when she first heard it, but now, she appreciates Zhang Wending a little.

After all, the implementation of cremation is not effective, and the phenomenon of disorderly burial is real.

Now many cadres are doing their work with the mentality of doing more wrong, doing less wrong, and not doing well, Zhang Wending can consider this matter at the risk of being attacked and reversed, at least this is an attitude of doing practical things!

Nowadays, it is not uncommon for people to take risks to do bad things, but it is rare for people like him to take risks to do practical things. Tsk, I still have a lot of vision for hibiscus flowers.

Zhang Wending's mind flashed with inspiration, and he followed the pole: "If this matter can be supported by the Civil Affairs Department, it will be good......"

Mu Jinhua looked at him, a little crying and laughing, this kid is really missing! The idea of the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs has come!

However, if you can get the support of the Civil Affairs Department, maybe this kid can really make a name for himself?

Thinking of the tossing strength of this favorite general under his subordinates, Mu Jinhua smiled and said: "Your heart is not small, you actually aimed at the Civil Affairs Department." Oh, Director Wu of the Civil Affairs Department and I are fellow countrymen, I will go to Baizhang next week, I can take you to meet with him, as for whether you can impress him, it depends on your ability. ”

Zhang Wending was grateful when he heard this, and even said that he would definitely make all the preparations and not lose the face of the leader, and sighed in his heart that a leader like Secretary Mu is so good, where to find it!
