Railways urge train travel to climate conference, COP 15
Release Date: 2009-06-25
It's a 12-day trip from Kyoto, Japan, to the Danish capital, Copenhagen, by train — but rail operators say it's worth it to get to a key climate change conference next December.
The International Union of Railways, UIC, says train travel releases between three and 10 times less carbon dioxide than driving or flying and it is urging government officials and environmentalists to take the train to the United Nations climate change conference in Denmark on Dec. 7-18.
