Just learned something really cool about trains in the Netherlands. Since 2017, all their electric trains are powered entirely by wind energy. 🌬🚆
It doesn’t mean the trains are literally plugged straight into a wind turbine, but the railway company buys enough wind‑generated electricity to match 100% of their trains’ energy use. Every ride you take there is essentially carbon‑neutral on paper.
It’s wild to think that something as ordinary as commuting by train can be fully green. Makes me wonder how long it’ll be before more countries catch up.
