CSX wins environmental recognition

CSX is the only Class I railroad named to the Carbon Performance Leadership Index (CPLI), part of the Carbon Disclosure Project’s (CDP) 2011 S&P 500 Report. The CPLI recognizes companies whose efforts have been most successful. This is the second consecutive year that CSX has been featured as a leader in its industry sector.

“CSX is proud to be recognized again for its industry-leading commitment to carbon emissions reduction. We are dedicated to creating a sustainable company to benefit our communities, customers, employees, and shareholders,” said Michael J. Ward, chairman, president, and CEO (pictured at left). “As freight demand continues to increase, it is important for our transportation network to meet consumers’ needs while reducing impacts to the environment. Our experience shows that innovative sustainability solutions work.”
