with the help of a cellphone app.

Yeah this won't work anymore 10 years from now. I guarantee it.

Which is why you keep the GPS coordinates, and then... use a cellphone app to find it.

Visiting NYC recently I passed by those massive cemeteries in the way from JFK to Manhattan.

I started reflecting on cemeteries and our practice of burying our dead on land we could be using to house or feed people

I'm all for remembering people by creating something useful like a tree or a bench, or maybe a donation marked by a plaque instead of several thousands of dollars for a plot and granite marker.

I moved from Quรฉbec to Germany a number of years ago, and there is a cemetery like the one in the article in a forest close to where I live. It started its activity back in 2005. It's hard to believe that a country with so much green space like Canada - let alone the whole of North America - only now has a single one.
