New Newsnight piece out about environmental breaches at UK energy company Drax's Canadian pellet mills

Strong echoes here of the findings of @UE's 2022 investigation into Drax's pellet mill operations in the US' deep south

[BBC Newsnight @BBCNewsnight]

Drax is the UK's largest recipient of green subsidies for biomass. They've been under particular focus as this year the BBC reported it had burned wood from rare forests in Canada. Now, #Newsnight's @katelamble has seen evidence of almost 200 environmental breaches at the mills which turn wood, headed to Drax, into pellets.
