Throwback to the time Alan Knight, our group head of sustainability, let it be known on #bbcpanorama that forests near roads are, in fact, not actually forests 🤯 This is why we pay him the big bucks 🤑🤑
😤 Sick of having to explain how forests are not forests when a road is in close proximity. Made a diagram to make it reaaaall clear for all you chumps.

You may think, whilst standing on a road looking at a forest, that you’re seeing a forest. But actually, if you’re on a road looking at a forest, it’s impossible for that to be a forest. #draxscience
😤 Pesky little satellite images... 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Right. If everyone could just watch this instead of reading that stupid and mean BBC article (bbc.com/news/science-environ…) that would be great. Thanks.

Gotta love this "Net Zero" lark 😜🤪 Green growth 100% works and isn't an excuse for our mates @beisgovuk to continue prioritising corporate profit over communities and a habitable planet. Thank god earth has infinite resources. Am i right? PS join the cult of Will Gardiner 😊

Trees are most valuable when we can find excuses to burn them at scale for £1 billion a year. What other possible use could they have!? 🤔
Replying to @DraxGroup
The value of each tree can be maximised by utilising sawmill residues like woodchips, sawdust and bark to produce #biomass. 🌍

Endless growth means energy generation needs to go up and up. This means we can burn our way through the earth's life support systems faster and faster #GrowthTilDeath
