The Eurostar network comes as a timely blessing to the environmentally conscious passenger. Studies show that a Eurostar train journey from London to Paris emits 11 kilograms of carbon dioxide per passenger compared to the emissions of 122 kilograms of carbon dioxide per passenger from a flight between the two cities.

That's over 90 percent less carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere! Note that the environmental damage caused by the emission of carbon dioxide directly into the upper atmosphere (from aeroplanes, for example) is 2.5 times the damage of the same emissions at ground level. In a move one step further towards curbing Global Warming, Eurostar is working to cut its carbon dioxide emissions by 25 percent by the year 2012. More good news on the green front: as of now, Eurostar has offset all its carbon emissions free of charge to passengers, thus rendering their Eurostar travel absolutely carbon neutral!
