By Martha Jackson


Having a proper burial to your love one is really expensive from tombstone to interment and so people choose to just cremation for their dead relatives. Other keeps this for decorative means some are making it as remembrance for its sentimental value but mostly people really just throws it away like what is happening to Florida with regards to cremation scattering. There are a lot of things to consider before cremation scattering Florida it all over down the streams or on the ground.

The Environmental Protection Agency established this law in order to protect the environment because at some point the ashes can give a bad effect on other plant life considering the fact that the cremated remains are rich mineral concentrations. It is not also advisable for one to scatter it along the river and streams because the non-biodegradable items can cause damage.

As a matter of fact the Florida Division of Cemetery and Funeral Services do not allow anyone to scatter the ashes in the freshwater flow. Just imagine how it can be so dirty for the drinking water source to be contaminated by and worse it supplies the entire area. It takes a lot of permission to be able to or else you might just contravene the provisions of Protection of Environment Operations Act 1997 which in result may bring you to a lot of charges in the legal proceedings.

Come to think about the odds about it but however the is no specific laws that totally states that scattering of ashes in certain areas is prohibited but then you should also be considerate enough about the measures. Complicated as it is so just why not use the other ways to properly scatter at least you get to play safe without making your deceased relative into an environmental trouble.

Casting is the method to use when you want to discard the remains through the wind for much dramatic feeling. Besides it is also favorable to you because this can be done in nearby locations perhaps the place where it reminds you the day when you have met or just in your comfortable homes. The ashes are not easy to carry as what you think because they are heavy same as heavy as when they were still living. It is expected that some particles may flew away but others will fall. For them not to be in the path of the ashes let them stand upwind.

Trenching talks about a lot effort in digging up a grave this is done by burying the remains deep down below the soil with or without the urn. It takes a long, narrow hole to shoot it down and preferably they are better use of fertilizers in most selected plants. Taking care of that plant somehow makes you feel the presence that your beloved memory still lives on. To say the least it is a matter of hitting two birds in one stone because in some point you help a plant grow and make a sentiment with it.

Raking is the process wherein you scatter the ashes then rake it after for it to hollow down the ground. For you not to be interrupted by wind move closer to the soil as you pour the remains. Ask someone kindly to rake it is all up to you or you can do it all together so you get to have at least have a special last moment ceremonially.

Everyone dies once in a while make their last day on earth unforgettable. Cherish every moments you have spent together and always remember to pay respect to the dead. As they rest in peace they will always remain in everybodys heart of their family member. Death is just the beginning of a journey for them to meet God.
