Anti-poverty charity ActionAid has launched a new anti-biofuels campaign targeting Transport Secretary Philip Hammond by using adverts on buses which stop outside his office. The adverts urge Mr Hammond to consider the impacts that biofuels are having in developing countries as they stand accused of pushing thousands of the world's poorest people off their land and into hunger. They are appearing on 50 buses on routes 507 and 521 with the slogan: "Biofuels. What is the human cost?"

Ads featuring Philip Hammond driving a bus also began appearing today on bus stops near the DfT.
