London, UK. 20th April, 2016. Louise Somerville Williams of Biofuelwatch UK speaks outside the Drax AGM. The protest called for Drax to be shut down and warned shareholders to disinvest as the conversion to imported biomass is risking their money and the planet. Subsidies for biomass use are certain to be cut, particularly as studies show its carbon impact to be 3 times that of coal. Digging coal for Drax uses causes extreme environmental impacts at opencast mines in Colombia and the UK. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
