Choosing to travel by train has many environmental benefits. According to recent data, cars and planes create 58% of the UK’s CO2 emissions, while all trains collectively only add up to 1.5%.

“I wrote this as a reminder that by making one small change, we can have such a big impact on all our relationships and our beautiful planet,” said David.

“The change we need to tackle the climate emergency is only going to happen if businesses do their bit to help people take steps towards more sustainable lifestyles; changing the way we move is a key part of that transition – taking the train instead of driving creates 70% less CO2 on average,” added Jo McClintock, vice president brand at Trainline.
