The environmental activists from the Kalikasan People’s Network for the Environment (Kalikasan PNE), Ban Toxics, and the Bayan Muna Party-list protest at the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) central office to condemn the continuing inaction over the disposal of hazardous trash shipments from Canada in a Tarlac landfill; thus, the administration of President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III, "spineless in the face of indiscriminate environmental offenses". There were 98, 40 footer-container van, discovered dumped in the country since 2013 by the subsidiary companies of the Ontario-based Chronic Inc. However, the DENR recently allowed the dumping of 29 of these containers in a landfill in Capas, Tarlac Province without a court sanction or a technical assessment of the trash inside.
