Answer:

Public transport is more sustainable.

Explanation:

it's because in public transport more people can travel while in carpooling only a few people can travel, with an average of 4-5.

Public transport mostly takes a passenger all over the city and its a scheduled ride while carpooling only takes you in one direction.

hope this helps

Both are good options to a sustainable way of development; however, public transport is a better option as it caters to many people unlike a car where only few people can sit (say 4-5 max) whereas in a public transport like bus, train etc more number of people can sit and hence there would lesser other vehicles (had these people used their individual vehicles to commute)

Explanation:

  • Carpooling is the sharing of car trips, which ensures more than one individual would be in the vehicle, thereby eliminating the necessity for anyone to travel to a position themselves. The carpooling process is the sharing of coach journeys.
  • Carpools minimise each individual's travel costs, such as fuel costs, tolls and driving tension, by allowing more passengers using one car. Carpooling is an environmentally friendly and economical way of commuting as sharing routes minimise air pollution,  road congestion, carbon emissions, & parking requirements. Often carpooling is encouraged by authorities , particularly in times of high  fuel prices or pollution. Car sharing is a great way of using a car's entire sitting capacity, lest is unused if only the driver was using the car.
  • Public transportation can be a safe way of protecting the environment by minimising the distance and time taken for people to reach destinations, which means less transportation emissions. By transporting more people with less cars, public transportation will minimise greenhouse gas emissions.
