Draxx is the main carbon dioxide polluter in the UK and it burns trees from all over the world, from some fragile ecosystems of oldgrowth forests. I do not believe their methods of decarbonising are safe, and I believe they need re-evaluating. Firstly of all, continuing to burn biomass is not a sustainable source of energy, and trying to cover it up by creating unsafe methods to capture carbon is not the solution either. Please reassess this project, for the health and well-being of people and all life in the areas affected, and for the long term effects these practices have on climate decline.
