It’s difficult to reconcile these demands with the need to build public transit efficiently and at scale. Nevertheless, an effort must be made.
It is important to design new systems of transportation that are sustainable and environmentally friendly in order to abate pollution that is contributing to climate change.
While that is important, the goal of public transportation should be to improve ease and comfortability for use.

Public transportation, even if fully run on fossil fuels, will always be more energy efficient than passenger vehicles due to the number of people it transports. The real issue with public transport is convincing people to stray from their comfortable cars to busses and trains, which many at least perceive are currently dirty, outdated, or unsafe. Read Less

I think connectivity and efficiency would be more effective in re-enchanting citizens with public transport and reduce the everyday use of cars and along with it car emissions, especially in big cities.

The point of public transportation should be to make it cheaper for individuals to get places and lessen pollution. This allows many people to travel places with minimal vehicles, and we should continue to emphasize how this contributes to helping the environment. Read Less
As public transport is often branded as a more environmentally conscious transportation option, it is important that they emphasize sustainability in their design and execution.

Emphasizing the sustainability of the systems would be largely beneficial, but should not consume an extensive amount of resources that could be allocated to other social/environmental issues.
