Please write down your ideas in a brainstorming session and create connections among raw materials, burial, recycling, and transformation. Formulate a mind map to link these concepts together.

- Raw materials: wood, metal, plastic, glass, fabric
- Burial: traditional burial, cremation, natural burial, burial at sea
- Recycling: repurposing materials, reducing waste, composting
- Transformation: decomposition, rebirth, renewal, regeneration

Connections:
- Raw materials can be used in the construction of burial caskets or urns
- Burial can involve the recycling of materials through eco-friendly burial practices
- Recycling can be a way to honor the deceased by creating something new from their belongings
- Transformation occurs in the natural decomposition process of burial, leading to renewal and regeneration of the earth

Mind map:

By linking these concepts together, we can see how they are all interconnected in the cycle of life and death, highlighting the importance of sustainability and honoring the earth in our burial practices.

Mind Map: Raw Materials, Burial, Recycling, and Transformation

Raw Materials
- Natural resources
- Extraction processes
- Unsustainable use

Burial
- Landfills
- Environmental impacts
- Degradation

Connections:
- Raw materials are extracted and used, often without regard for sustainability.
- This leads to the accumulation of waste and the depletion of natural resources.
- Burial in landfills is a common disposal method, but it can have negative environmental consequences.

Recycling
- Collection and reprocessing of materials
- Reduction of waste
- Conservation of resources

Connections:
- Recycling can help to reduce the amount of waste that is buried in landfills.
- It can also help to conserve natural resources by using recycled materials instead of new ones.
- Recycling requires cooperation from individuals, businesses, and governments to be effective.

Transformation
- Changing the form or nature of materials
- Repurposing
- Upcycling

Connections:
- Transformation can be used to create new products from recycled materials.
- It can also be used to upcycle waste materials into new and valuable items.
- Transformation can help to reduce the amount of waste that is generated and the need for new raw materials.
