Freight Railroads and Climate Change

InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast

With the need to decrease emissions to help combat climate change growing more apparent by the day, freight railroads are stepping up to the plate. We discuss freight railroads and climate change on this episode with Association of American Railroads (AAR) Assistant VP for Government Affairs Jordan Stone and Assistant VP: Environment, Hazardous Materials and Climate Change Devin Sprinkle.
Jordan and Devin go over how freight rail is already the most fuel-efficient shipping mode over land and how railroads are working to make it even better with the potential for electric or hydrogen powered locomotives, improvements at railyards, cleaner fuel and many other initiatives - along with how partnerships help speed progress.
