Railroad and freight transportation services provider Union Pacific Corp. on Tuesday published its second climate action plan, which includes its long-term strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Union Pacific Railroad, the principal operating company, said its plans include purchasing new battery electric locomotives and implementing its energy management system in about three-quarters of its active road fleet by the end of the year, among other efforts.

"We must continue to be forward thinking in our initiatives to see reductions in our absolute emissions. Climate change is caused by human behavior and recognizing our community impact is imperative," said Maqui Parkerson, vice president, labor relations and sustainability.
