You are out of date. Gasoline and diesel vehicles WERE massively polluting 50 years ago, especially when there was lead in petrol. But since then, the emissions have gone to almost nothing and are not a problem of any significance.

They still pollute!

What planet did you come from?

Fire up your ICE mobile and just let it run in an enclosed garage. How long do you think you will live if your inside there at the same time?

My pure electric could drive for miles and miles, hours and hours in a circle in that enclosed garage and it wouldn't affect my health at all.

You should study the atmosphere of Venus. The CO2 there makes it's atmosphere very, very hot.

Without CO2 in the atmosphere it would be much, much cooler there.

Something Carl Sagan proved many years ago.

And AGW is NOT 'settled science' which is a laughable idea. A cursory understanding of the failed predictions shows just how unsettled "The Settled Science" is. You need some new slogans. The old failed ones are just a joke these days. Nobody takes "Settled Science" seriously now.

Only some fossil fuel folks do.

But it's your rice bowl.

Fortunately it's going away.

Just too dirty and polluting for the world.
