The environment group EcoWaste Coalition has called out Holy Week pilgrims amid the piles of garbage that were seen littered in some religious sites.
At the Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto in San Jose del Monte City, bins were found overflowing with mostly plastic garbage such as plastic bags and bottles, and food waste. While the Stations of the Cross at the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Marilao, Bulacan were almost litter-free, some visitors left their trash at the site.
“Littering, which has become a tradition in itself, is truly appalling and unacceptable,” it stressed.
