Environmental Case For Rail (EDM1678)

Environmental Case For Rail

EDM number 1678 in 2005-06, proposed by John McDonnell on 16/02/2006.

That this House notes that transport accounts for more than a third of total UK carbon dioxide emissions; is concerned that carbon dioxide emissions from transport are predicted to rise by almost 10 per cent. between 2000 and 2010; supports an integrated transport system in which different transport modes complement rather than compete with each other; further notes that the railways produce substantially less carbon dioxide emissions than cars, road freight or aviation; and therefore urges the Government to ensure that the protection and expansion of the rail network is central to its policy of reducing carbon emissions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 69 MPs.
