Don’t delay an end to coal use.

The UK has laid out a plan to phase out coal by the end of 2025.

A coal phase-out is great news, but the plan proposed as a way to achieve it is not.

On 8 February, the final day of the coal phase-out consultation, Ditch Coal turned up at BEIS (the Deptartment for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy) and set out 2,900 clay figures outside BEIS to acknowledge the lives which could be saved each year if we quit coal now.
