Teens' climate feelings and rail emissions data share same-day release

Two environment-related releases on 18 September pair young people's climate testimony with official rail emissions statistics.

BBC News Wiltshire reported that young people at a climate change event described their feelings about the environment [1]. The Office of Rail and Road published annual statistics covering electricity and diesel consumption by mainline passenger and freight operators in Great Britain, estimates of their associated CO2e emissions, and other environmental measures for non-traction energy, water and waste [2]. Read together, the items offer two kinds of climate information: personal testimony from young people and official emissions data [1][2].
