Drax grows its own forests in Canada, planting and replanting on a massive scale, I live near Drax and it has changed beyond all recognition in the last 10 years , Bio Mass and Carbon capture being two of the biggest innovations. I have had the guided tour which as an engineer was fascinating, there is nothing disgraceful about it at all, they are very supportive of the local economy and as neighbours they take some beating . There is no noise , no fumes and mega millions spent on improvements not just within the plant itself , they have made two nature reserves locally from what used to be old **** heaps that are a joy to use , formed man made lakes, have Swan and Owl sanctuaries etc etc ,
Do some research yourself or better still take the guided tour and be amazed at the efforts that they put into the future of power generation , their next foray is into making electricity for all the batteries to be charged when we move away from fossil fuels in vehicles over the next few decades, exciting times as they say
