“I appeal to all candidates not to injure trees.” – Nilo Tamoria, DENR CALABARZON

“I appeal to all candidates not to injure trees. Please spare them as posting areas for campaign materials, Nilo Tamoria, DENR- Calabarzon regional director, said in a report from Philippine Daily Inquirer.

DENR Regional officer observed that campaign posters have begun to litter the national highways in the region. It has become a common sight that during election period, posters, placards and other campaign materials both in legal and illegal sizes are attached to trees along the highways for maximum exposure of candidates.

“This does not bode well for the trees that provide the cool breeze and refreshing green vista of the highway.” Tamoria said.

He also pointed out that attaching election materials to trees such as tarpaulins and posters is a violation of Presidential Decree 953 which prohibits destruction, damaging and injuring trees.

Tamoria also called on the officials of the Commission on Election in the region to remind candidates of the prohibition.
