Want to get into biomass burning? We've done our research and put together our top 3️⃣ tips for how to burn the world's forests in power stations. 🎯🌳🔥 #CutCarbonNotForests

Alex Sobel MP says he agrees with Dale Vince that the Government should stop paying Drax to burn trees. Cutting down forests to feed Drax incurs a huge carbon cost | Drax | The Guardian www.theguardian.com/business/202... #CutCarbonNotForests

It's far better to put effort into changing how we heat our homes and travel. But billions spent on burning trees in power stations are a waste of money. #CutCarbonNotForests www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

One of the many types of wildlife put at risk by biomass. #CutCarbonNotForests

Here's a US pellet mill that produces biomass, which is then sent to UK power stations. Isn't it incredible that cutting down forests, turning them into pellets, shipping them thousands of miles, and setting them on fire, is completely carbon neutral?! #CutCarbonNotForests

We're learning so much about bioenergy - here's one of the trucks that carries trees from the forest so as they can be turned into 'sustainable' wood pellets. #CutCarbonNotForests

The UK burns wood pellets in its power stations. Those wood pellets are made in mills in the southeast US. The mills are often in the heart of or right next to communities. They pollute people's air and contribute to health issues, and regularly breach environmental permits. #CutCarbonNotForests

This week we're continuing our delve into bioenergy - a new technology that promises to create 'clean' power by burning forests. #CutCarbonNotForests

In a new series we're exploring different renewable energy sources. First up is clean, green, totally 100% sustainable (don't worry, we asked Drax) BIOENERGY. For those who don't know, that's... *checks notes* burning trees in power stations. 🌳🔥 #CutCarbonNotForests

Congrats to the community of Gloster, Mississippi on the rejection of Drax's request to increase pollution in their town! We stand beside you in fighting the harmful impacts of wood pellet plants for biomass energy. You are an inspiration to us all!

Victory for #Gloster! The #MS Drax permit has been DENIED! Thank you to everyone who showed up to the board meeting, signed the petition or spread the word. Your support proves that greed does not always win!

The Trump administration is clearing the path for destructive logging projects across 113 million acres of public forests—a directive that follows a recent executive order to ramp up timber production by 25%. We won’t stand for this disastrous plan.

We asked MPs - of this new(ish) parliament *only 1️⃣%* of them think that bioenergy will increase the UK's energy independence. 🌳🔥 #CutCarbonNotForests
