Option 1 : There have been concerns that diseases can be transferred from the buried bodies.

Option 1 is the correct answer as it is the only statement talking about the issues with natural burials. The statement tells that there are concerns with natural burials that the disease with the bodies can be transformed into the soil and spread diseases.

Other 4 options talks about the benefits of natural burials such as it makes the land fertile, trees are not being cut which is good for the environment and such. But its not valid to the question asked thus is discarded.
