Flood survivors, fisherfolk, and environmental groups march to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources headquarters in Quezon City on Wednesday, to demand the cancellation of mining and quarrying permits in Rizal province. The groups raised concerns about the alleged loss of over 10,000 hectares of forest cover in the past decade, primarily due to quarrying and land conversion, based on data gathered by the Kalikasan People’s Network for the Environment. The protesters called for stronger measures to protect Rizal’s natural resources.
