Climate change and pandemic challenges require new approaches to limit the effects on the environment and climate, but also to revive the economic growth.

Both goals can be met by the rail transport. We all became aware in the last year that mobility is important to go to work, to school, to travel on vacation, to reunite with family and friends etc. Therefore, increasing the mobility of people and goods exchange is a viable opportunity to boost the economy, education and to facilitate the connection between people, communities, families, regions of the country and Europe.

Ensuring rail mobility provides alternatives to current and future difficulties, and to limit CO2 emissions, train journey must become a commonplace because it is the greenest means of transport.

You can find out the impact on the environment, produced by using different means of transport for trips to Europe, by accessing the program ECOPASSENGER
(http://ecopassenger.org/bin/query.exe/en?L=vs_uic).

The application is developed by the International Union of Railways and allows the comparison of air, car and rail journey routes, by calculating the energy consumption, CO2 emissions and other pollutants (nitrogen oxide emissions, particulate emissions, hydrocarbon emissions), for each selected route. Any route of interest can be entered and the application will highlight the emissions by modes of transport.

We can all contribute to the fight against climate change and economic growth. Get on the train! The future is the railway.

Schimbările climatice și provocările în contextul pandemic necesită noi abordări pentru a limita efectele asupra mediului și asupra climei, dar și de a revitaliza creșterea economică.

Prin transportul feroviar pot fi îndeplinite ambele deziderate. Cu toții am devenit conștienți în ultimul an că mobilitatea este importantă pentru a merge la muncă, la școală, a călători în vacanțe, a ne reîntâlni cu familia și prietenii etc. De aceea creșterea mobilităţii persoanelor şi a schimburilor de marfuri reprezintă o şansă viabilă pentru stimularea economiei, a educației și de a înlesni conexiunea între oameni, comunități, familii, regiunile țării și cu Europa.

Asigurarea mobilității pe calea ferată oferă alternative în faţa dificultăţilor actuale și viitoare, iar pentru a limita emisiile de CO2, călătoria cu trenul trebuie să devină un lucru obișnuit pentru că reprezintă cel mai ecologic mijloc de transport.

Puteți afla impactul asupra mediului, produs prin utilizarea diferitelor mijloace de transport pentru călătoriile în Europa, accesând programul ECOPASSENGER (http://ecopassenger.org/bin/query.exe/en?L=vs_uic).

Aplicația este realizată de Uniunea Internaţională a Căilor Ferate și permite compararea rutelor de călătorie aeriană, auto şi feroviară, prin calcularea consumului de energie, emisiilor de CO2 şi a altor poluanţi (emisii de oxizi de azot, emisii de particule, emisii de hidrocarburi), pentru fiecare rută selectată. Poate fi introdusă orice rută de interes și aplicația va evidenția emisiile pe moduri de transport.

Toți putem contribui la combaterea schimbărilor climatice și la creșterea economică. Urcă-te în tren! Viitorul este calea ferată.

The railway offers Europe a truly connected future. Cooperation between railway companies already leads to a uniform network in which key areas align their programming processes, overcome language barriers, simplify the rules and technical requirements of the European Union for trains to run across borders.

In this way a new infrastructure capacity is created, in particular for the connection of industrial parks to the main freight network, as well as the completion of the European network linking capitals and big cities. Such rail connections between countries contributes to the creation of a European identity and to the shaping of common values. At the local level the railways provide transport and mobility services, offering passengers more options.

The Connecting Europe Express train is a unique project involving the European Commission, the European Railway Community and Infrastructure Companies (ERC), European railway operators, infrastructure managers and many other partners at Community and local level. Conceived by the European Commission as part of the European Year of Railways and with the help of unprecedented collaboration between railway companies, the Connecting Europe Express train will cross the continent this autumn – over 40 cities in 26 countries in 36 days. The train will demonstrate the power of the railway to connect people and companies, but also the importance of EU infrastructure policy that makes this possible.
