tailieunhanh - Labour and the Environment: A Natural Synergy

While most consumers still base their travel decisions largely on price, value for money, service and availability, more and more people are taking environmental factors into account. The railway community is therefore working hard to provide customers with comprehensive information on climate change, air pollution and the ‘external costs’ of transport. New internet-based tools, such as EcoPassenger and EcoTransIT (see Figure 6), are making a range of data available to customers. These interactive services enable customers to calculate emissions for journeys made using different transport modes | UNEP Labour and the Environment A Natural Synergy Copyright 2007 United Nations Environmental Programme ISBN 978-92-807-2740-1 UNEP Job Number DPD 0856 NA Disclaimers The content and views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the United Nations Environment Programme UNEP or of the contributory organizations the International Labour Organization ILO the World Health Organization WHO and the International Trade Union Confederation ITUC .
