MANILA – Environmental activists are renewing their calls against the plans to revive the controversial Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP), with a 160-kilometer bike ride from Quezon City Memorial Circle to Morong, Bataan last weekend.
Dubbed as “Bikers for Clean Energy,” cyclists, mobility advocates, scientists, and engineers said the Philippine government should instead transition to sustainable energy.
“This bike ride is in response to the many issues confronting the planned revival of the BNPP, the calls for clean energy, and how the government should respond to the impacts of climate change,” said Center for Environmental Concerns – Philippines research and advocacy coordinator Jordan Fronda said before the bike ride kicked off.
