Tonight I watched TV news, and I saw councillors quarreling about the closure of cemeteries. The population is increasing, people have not stopped dying, and land space is diminishing, so we are running out of burial spots. Going to the parish council meeting and shouting at one another will not solve the challenge.
I would like my Bark Di Truth supporters, who are thinking people, to tell our leaders how this matter can be dealt with. Please add your comments at the bottom of this blog.

ReplyDeleteOne, bring back family plots. Two, build new cemeteries. We can build new schools, new hospitals, new clinics, new government buildings, new markets, new parks, new prisons, new plazas, so why not build new cemeteries?

Part of being able to employ critical thinking is to ensure that you are well informed as possible. Many persons can't be bothered to find out what is happening beyond their noses and they seem to think that things happen in a vacuum.
DeleteYes the population is decreasing as Micspen said but there will be continued demand for burial space. We have over 2.7 million people who must die one day and we will continue to use land space for those who have died while the living is demanding more landspace.. What we now need is thinking people who can come up with solutions. We will continue arguing for the next 50 years without any solutions.
DeleteLawd Gad a so it go fi true?then wi can't do better.
ReplyDeleteCremation is the answer....l have decided long ago that l would like my body to be cremated.The soul is more important. Eloberate tombs etc is of little value.
