Last September, Anglesey Aluminium, owned by Rio Tinto and Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation, closed its aluminium smelter off the north west coast of Wales, causing major unemployment in the area. Rio Tinto tried to attract unemployed workers to a new smelter in Abu Dhabi. Now the company is trying to green its image by proposing a biomass power plant on Anglesey, backed by the local government.
