The Advantages of Public Transportation

Public transportation is here for a reason, so use it! Public buses, subways, and trains are all wonderful methods of public transportation for many different reasons. Most obviously, they have a significantly positive impact on the environment. Think about this for just a moment: If just 10% of U.S. car travel were transferred to public transportation, we would save a staggering 75 million tons of CO² from being emitted into the atmosphere. The benefits don't stop at reduced greenhouse emissions, however. If you choose public transportation, the great thing is, you don't have to drive! You are free to read, listen to music, or talk to your friends, all the while not being overly annoyed with traffic, directions, and other driving nuisances. So give it a try, maybe start taking public transportation to work once a week. You'll be surprised at how convenient it actually is! You'll save money on gas, reduce your stress level, and be making a positive contribution to combating greenhouse gas emissions.
