 Today, I want to talk about trains, and especially high-speed rail (HSR). Why? Above all, transportation is inextricably linked to both climate and disability and thus deserves our focus if we want to build an accessible, sustainable future. Modes of transportation produce varying rates of pollution, from nearly-clean electric trains to highly-polluting trucks and planes; transportation-based pollution and injuries from crashes contribute to and exacerbate disability; and different types of transportation have different accessibility profiles, ranging from good to horrendous.
