BREAKING: We just stormed the offices of Drax’s lobbyists, 5654, While Drax is pushing for AI data centres run off burning old growth forests. All their employees decided to evacuate. We will not rest until their ties are severed for good

We’re building a mass of people to take direct action with us to stop the world’s first AI data centre powered by burning trees. Join an activist training in Sheffield or London so you are ready, link below

We just found out the world's biggest forest-burner, Drax, based in the UK, earned £947 milion pounds last year. This gets so much more horrifying when you know about the context (see more)

It's time everyone got more woke NOW. And whats a better way to do that than signing up for our direct action skill share day?

BREAKING: We disrupted Ed Milliband’s keynote speech to reject a new AI DATA CENTRE powered by TREE BURNING.

"Drax has taken the best of what they had left: their peace, #cleanair, and health." Read how #Drax's subsidies in the UK enable its #biomass burning in Gloster, Mississippi, at the expense of the community's health.

We can’t breathe because of a Drax pellet plant subsidised by UK tax

The company is paid up to £1bn a year producing green energy for Britain. But one of its factories has been accused of choking people in America

Taking the message directly to #Drax in their #London HQ 📣 Solidarity with the people of #Gloster #Mississippi, where Drax’s wood pellet facility has, for nearly a decade, released massive amounts of toxic pollutants into their community, violating the federal Clean Air Act and Mississippi law. 1/2

BREAKING: Axe Drax took action at Drax’s UK headquarters in solidarity with the people of in Gloster, Mississippi. Despite 1000's of environmental violations and nearly $2m in fines, regulators have just approved Drax to INCREASE emissions. #AxeDrax @stopburningtrees.bsky.social

"With how logging works here in BC, there isn’t really a way for Drax to be operating in these areas and not include old-growth forests in their wood supply. The people of the UK should know that the risk of old-growth trees being cut down to produce wood pellets is higher than ever."

Drax still burning 250-year-old trees sourced from forests in Canada, experts say

Drax Power Station doesn’t provide low-carbon electricity generation; it is the UK’s biggest single carbon emitter. Let’s be clear: the future isn’t burning forests for energy, there’s nothing clean or green about #Drax. #AxeDrax #StopBurningTrees actionnetwork.org/petitions/sa...

For years, nearby residents have warned about health risks from #Drax’s wood pellet plants. Now even the workers are speaking out. When both the community and employees say the same thing, it’s time to listen. It’s not just dust — it’s people’s lives. buff.ly/pgOIBFD

The people of #Gloster, #MS, have spoken again and again: they deserve clean air and peace. Instead, Drax got permission to pollute more. Our communities deserve better. Read the truth behind the Drax #lies: buff.ly/YJtE5Gc

From the American South to the English North, our message is the same: the profits of Drax must NOT be put before the health and wellbeing of Gloster residents. #AirPollution #AxeDrax #StopBurningTrees #BiomassScam

HXR just signed the open letter to Peter Kyle and @feryalclark.bsky.social at the Department for Science Innovation & Technology calling on @teamlabouruk.bsky.social to reject Drax's bid to burn even more trees to power AI Data Centres. No more bungs for biomass! @axedrax.bsky.social

WHY did we SHUT DOWN #Grayling in #Leeds and #London? Because lobbyist Grayling's so-called 'ethics policy' is in direct contradiction with having #Drax as a client 🙄 Uh oh! Something needs to be done #DropDraxGrayling! 1/3

LISTEN: #Grayling lobbies for #Drax, fossil fuel giants and arms dealers. It's business is built on blood-stained money. Drax is burning forests from Europe, Canada & the US & their operations poison communities in the American South. And UK bill-payers pay for it all #DropDrax #GraylingDropDrax 3/3

CRASHED: #Grayling offices in Leeds and London! Our energy bills are subsidising the UK's biggest polluter - and #Grayling is one of #Drax's main lobbyists, responsible for aggressively lobbying the UK Government to hand them billions more in bill-payer subsidies. #AxeDrax @draxgroup.bsky.social 1/3

This 61m scroll lists each of Drax's 11,378 environmental regulation breaches in the US. Lobbying firm Grayling helps Drax get handouts from the UK government to continue burning forests and polluting communities.

We've been to visit lobbying firm Grayling in Leeds calling on them to drop Drax. The government recently decided to continue giving Drax billions in subsidies from our energy bills - Grayling facilitates this

"Ancient trees are shipped to the UK, then burned – using billions in ‘green’ subsidies. Stop this madness now" Couldn't agree more @dalevince.com #AxeDrax #StopBurningTrees www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ancient trees are shipped to the UK, then burned – using billions in ‘green’ subsidies. Stop this madness now | Dale Vince

The evidence against the Drax power station is damning, yet the government wants to continue its massive public funding, says campaigner Dale Vince

Four scientists joined @axedrax.bsky.social to disrupt the Drax AGM last week. We were joined by people from the US who came to protest the air pollution created by their pellet factories, some who were barred from entry. Read more from @realmediapress.bsky.social realmedia.press/drax-agm-2025/

Protests disrupt Drax AGM - Real Media - The View From Below

Drax pockets huge ‘green’ subsidies in the UK, but their Mississippi wood pellet plant is killing and harming racialised communities, while the UK Yorkshire plant is our biggest carbon emitter.

We refuse to stand by as Drax makes money from killing people, forests and the environment, so we took #directaction at their AGM this morning. If you'd like to see people standing up against corporate #greenwashing, donate and check out our next welcome call on Tuesday 13th May. Links in bio!

🔴Drax SILENCED 2 frontline community members from Southern US — denying them the right to speak after they travelled thousands of miles to expose Drax’s crimes. ⏰By 11:30am, Drax shut the AGM down. 🌬️Cowards. You can burn forests, Drax — but you can’t face the people.
