Sorry, I meant that to be sarcastic. Our climate, transit/logistics are terrible when it comes to our ability to “modify our behaviour”. We have to heat our facilities 8 months of the year, and our transit system sucked, before random stabbings we’re a thing. My wife tried to train to the office for a while, and she couldn’t get parked unless she went really early, so I would drop her off, only to get called back due to long delays for whatever reason, so she could drop me at work and drive downtown anyway. Just wasn’t worth all the wasted time. She’ll get a hybrid at some point, but will never take the train again.
