Prof Lily Kong and Prof James Sidaway from the Dept of Geography of the NUS Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, discussed about land scarcity in Singapore, which has led to cremations and columbaria replacing burial grounds to house the dead, as well as 'eco-friendly' alternatives like sea burials, scatter burials and woodland burials.
