@urlyman As the world's climate worsens, it seems possible that there will be greater demand for cars, since they have heating and air conditioning. And due to underinvestment for a long period of time, and a focus on suburban/exurban regions over dense cities, public transit does not seem particularly viable, either.

Maybe self-driving cars and pooling will help a bit?
