Compared with traditional tomb- sweeping customs,offering flowers,presenting condolence cards and online memorials are more popular among young generations.Lighting firecrackers and burning joss paper damages the environment and can also cause fires easily.Flowers are much better.Some people don't have the time to really go to the tomb site.But still,they need to express their feelings.So the online cemetery is a convenient way for them.It is a good way to avoid the crowds,and most people believe true feelings of love and respect toward late family members are more important than how you commemorate them.However,the elder generation still thinks that going to the site in person and cleaning the tomb by hand is the best way to show your respect and love to the ancestors.In this case,other green tomb sweeping traditions are easier to accept.Planting a tree instead of building a tomb is another offering that is being accepted by a growing number of people.It saves land and at the same time improves the environment.The government also encourages us to practice a green tomb sweeping way.
There is no restriction for people to express the grief.What the ancestors wish is that we can enrich our life.Why do we burn so much and cause so heavy smoke?There is no harm in trying sweeping tombs in a low-carbon and green way.
