    In fact it would march in strongly if everyone was magically in an EV today. Not to mention all the other pollutive issues.

      You’re being downvoted but you’re right. EVs have a smaller carbon footprint than ICE, but comprehensive public transportation is the only way to meaningfully reduce transportation-related emissions.

      Living in the US (or similarly car-dependent countries) will force Americans to have cars, however, and in that world EVs are marginally better than the alternative. Still not nearly enough.
