Unless you live in the countryside there used to be public transportation in cities until the car companies bought them out and dismantled them

Some of us live in places that used to be country and are slowly turning to sprawl. Public transport will work when you bulldoze an area the size of a small country and start over.

That's what they did for car infrastructure but nobody wants to talk about that 🤷

No they didn't. They tore up railroad lines and got rid of reliable public transportation. You claim to support the environment, but you're talking about replacing undeveloped land or farmland with a train. There isn't enough traffic here to saturate a normal 2-lane road, much less a damn train.
