250-Year-Old Trees - Business Outrank

The company Drax faces widespread criticism because experts discovered that it still burns trees which are 250 years old from Canada's ancient forest reserves. Stand.earth released a report which showed Drax Canada received multiple truck deliveries of entire logs during 2024 and 2025 that originated from British Columbia's old-growth forest areas. The discovery contradicts Drax's previous statements about using only environmentally friendly wood for its biomass energy operations. The British power plant which received billions in green energy subsidies now faces accusations of destroying essential ecological habitats. The investigation which used satellite tracking technology discovered that Drax obtained wood from forests that contained trees which exceeded 250 years in age. The company's sustainability promises face opposition from environmental specialists because they believe the removal of such priceless trees violates their environmental commitments. Drax maintains that it uses only inferior wood materials but experts prove that most of its biomass fuel comes from forests containing substantial amounts of old-growth timber. The environmental community maintains that old trees functioning in their natural habitat should not be considered waste because they sustain the equilibrium of nature. The ongoing controversy about biomass energy sustainability has brought back worldwide discussions about the renewable nature of this energy source of power.
