In a new paper, we ask “Can rail reduce British aviation emissions?” doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.… We find that 44% of UK international flights could have a rail alternative now or in the future, but that only covers 14% of emissions.

Would you consider taking a train rather than a plane for your next trip abroad? 🛫🚆 Research from Institute for Transport Studies at Leeds showed that up to 41% of Britons holidaying abroad could travel by rail instead of air to cut down on carbon emissions 👇
