‘What I hate about UP Fair’: Bullet Dumas thumbs down littering

Bullet Dumas was among the crowds who gathered to enjoy top OPM acts at the UP Fair from Feb. 10 to 15 last week.

However, the folk singer-songwriter disapproved of trash left behind by fairgoers at the fairgrounds in the University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City.

Dumas shared pictures of plastic bottles, cigarette butts and a food wrapper on campus via Twitter today, Feb. 18.

What I hate about the #UPFair,” he stated.

Littering in public spaces around Metro Manila has been called out by environmental groups such as EcoWaste Coalition, especially after events like New Year revelries and Holy Week activities.

Celebrities like Antoinette Taus and Solenn Heussaff have also helped raise awareness via social media on Filipinos’ littering habit. Both advocate for avoiding single-use plastic. JB
