    Help protecting the climate with DB Cargo

    Trains are not just the safest, but also the greenest way of freight transport, as they generate over 80% less CO₂e than road transport.

     

    Climate and environmental protection are amongst the greatest challenges of our time. This affects us particularly in the transport and logistics industry: around a quarter of the CO2e-emissions in Europe are caused by transport.

    Did you know that rail is one of the safest and most environmentally friendly means of transport? Rail transport is not only the safest, but also the most environmentally friendly means of freight transportation, as rail transport can save more than 80 percent of CO₂e emissions compared to road freight transport. We go one step further: with "Climate+", we enable Co2e-neutral* transport chains for our customers.
