I try to take as much public transportation as possible wherever I go, including my 40-mile commute to and from work. I am always interested by the amount of people who had never even considered public transportation as an option, especially in cities that have robust light rail and bus options. That being said, the infrastructure of public transportation rarely is a top priority for updates and renovations. As the planet continues to warm due to human-accelerated climate change, we need to think about how this will affect the millions of people who utilize public transportation every single day. With that, can we just start with getting covered areas at every bus stop so that people do not pass out from direct sun exposure and shelter from the rain?
