EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Mike Amesbury 👇 Is the government funnelling public money to the fossil fuel industry? Will #CCS reduce carbon emissions? Have upstream methane emissions been factored in? Are you listening to us? Are you listening to the science? Nice one Mike 🙄

🌳 Burning trees in power plants is one of the greatest threats to forests and their wildlife. In 2023 Drax power station sourced 8 million tonnes of wood, and burned 6 million tonnes of it. #AxeDrax #StopBurningTrees #ForestDay #IntlForestDay

🧑‍⚖️ Diana Warner, retired GP, took action to stop a Drax train in 2021. ⚠️ Her jury was told to ignore their conscience. This is a direct attack on jury independence — and on our right to resist climate destruction. ✊ Don’t ignore your conscience. Defend our Juries #AxeDrax

Drax protester get preposterous sentence for blocking a train for ONE MINUTE "I have been given a two year conditional discharge. Drax can continue operating AND get government subsidies. This doesn’t make sense to me" Axe Drax @axedrax.bsky.social Does it make sense??? thecanary.co/uk/news/2025/0…
