Unilever, Englewood Cliffs, N.J., launched the Green Express, an eco-friendly train that will transport Algida ice creams from its factory near Naples 700 kilometers to the logistics hub in Parma, taking 3,500 trucks off the road each year, equating to an annual CO₂ saving of 2,600 tons. Other benefits include reducing congestion and potential traffic accidents and an energy saving of 40 million mega-joules per year—the equivalent of the annual needs of 4,200 families.
