The UPLB community opposes House Bill 1143 because:

1) Fragmentation leads to degradation

• Segregating 57.77 ha from the the MFR will adversely affect its integrity as a watershed, source of geothermal energy and repository of different species of trees, birds, insects and other indigenous, valuable and exotic flora found only in the Philippines.
• This will also start the "inertia of degradation" and "edge effect." Once degradation starts from the BSP area, degradation in the other areas of MFR will be difficult to control.
