Burned: Are trees the new coal?

NOTE: This is last years line up and no longer current!

with Frances Howe

Time: Sat 11th, 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Labels: Campaign Stall
Location: Village Hall

Drax Power Station in Yorkshire is the world’s largest biomass power station and among the UK’s
largest coal burners. Biomass receives government subsidies as renewable energy, while
contributing to climate change, forest destruction and environmental injustice. Come and learn
about the biggest fake renewable you’ve probably never heard of, why it’s a problem and how we
can stop it.
