[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We do have a really great public transportation system.  I’ve been taking bus plus metro to commute to work for that past 20 years because of my concern for the environment.  [/quote]

That's fortunate that you have the ability to use public transit. But WaPo has run multiple articles in the last few days about how ridership is down and time spent in traffic is longer than before.

Falling ridership and increased commuting means all of the RTO crap is directly working against all of the climate-driven policies. Yay -- more government inefficiency and waste. They should either allow max telework for those who can or cut the sanctimonious, fake climate concern. Can't have it both ways.[/quote]

Did you get banned from metro? Otherwise, why can't you take it?[/quote]

Lots of people I know (including my spouse and me in Moco and Howard) have places of employment that are nowhere close to metro. Not about to take a 30-45 minute commute and turn it into 2+ hours with buses. Besides, the entire point is the disconnect between the climate crisis and commuting policies. It's mind-blowing that governments think they should mandate what cars and appliances people buy before strongly encouraging telework.

Love the biases and lack of reading skills on DCUM. [/quote]
