Graves are such depressing places. Expensive over priced caskets full of silk one probably never slept on while alive to enjoy the feel, now they're interred with their eyes glued shut their mouths sewn closed and their body full of preservative chemicals while their faces are painted so that sallow sunken wrinkled drawn dead tissue can be said to look so natural! As their mourners passed by while the lid was up.
You could always tell your mum that while there's still time you're going to make a concerted effort to get a law passed that makes sun pyres and flame pyre's a legal option in the death ritual.
Argue that it's simply the new green that inspires you. Give back to nature with the sun pyre. Rot naked upon it as it stands high and permits vultures, buzzards and all manner of carrion feeders to feast and survive themselves another day.
While the flame pyre isn't really air pollution because you're a mostly carbon life form. And if it is deemed air pollution just recall that you are what you eat and as such maybe the threat of all that toxic smoke wafting downwind will inspire the food manufacturing industry to make a healthier product so that the consumer is then healthier while alive and less toxic when they burn.
I'd do this face to face with mum, so that at the end of that little presentation I'd smile innocently as if I'm dead serious. While, if she's Christian religious, I'd interject; "And why not mum? The Bible says from the dust we were born and unto the dust we shall return!"

"You're an atheist! Don't you know you're going to hell when you die?"
So I can be in the company of all those Christians god put there after he made the place? Oh that sucks! Isn't there anyplace where an atheist can go and be free of those zombie worshiping sheep bastards?

"In life you can never be too kind or too fair; everyone you meet is carrying a heavy load. When you go through your day expressing kindness and courtesy to all you meet, you leave behind a feeling of warmth and good cheer, and you help alleviate the burdens everyone is struggling with."
