British Coal-fired power plant company Drax has had its profits plunge by almost half as it now has to pay carbon credits for being the largest single carbon polluting station. Drax spent 107 million pounds this year under the European emissions trading scheme when carbon allocations were reduced. The company paid about 11 million pounds last year. So now we know that the target of the global warming movement is big industry and their objective is to run them out of business.
