I would use public transport were it available in my area. Lived in Europe for many years and used it daily there, but they know how to work it so that its accessable and worth using. As well, with gas at over $5 a gallon in most European countries, its well worth using public transport there.
Would never get rid of a few of my toys. The 911, a motorcycle and airplane aint going anywhere but I would use public if they ever work it out to help things out.
That said until the idiot on the corner with a hummer and 'burb or the jerk across the street with a "lifted truck" does something then my taking public transport will do little to help. The above A$$'s are wasting the worlds natural resources far worse than I am with my car. I get 20+ mpg in every vehicle I own, and 3 of them get 35+ mpg, so comparing them to these jerks getting 8-10 mpg is not apples to apples.
