the pollutant emissions discharged at the tailpipe outlet will be so low as to be hardly measurable, and their practical impact on air quality will be negligible. A transition from the gasoline or diesel ICE to a full gasoline/diesel hybrid can significantly reduce emissions. —Reitz et al. g/bhp-h or 15–20?mg/km).

They also found that extending the lifetime of a vehicle contributed to a moderate increase in emissions of criteria pollutants (NO x , HC, and CO) during the use phase of the vehicle. —Kagawa et al. Extending vehicle life reduces the number of new vehicles sold, with an associated decrease in energy consumed for vehicle production.

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) announced that greenhouse gas emissions in California in 2016 fell below 1990 levels for the first time since emissions peaked in 2004—a reduction roughly equivalent to taking 12 million cars off the road or saving 6 billion gallons of gasoline a year.

It has been a challenge to determine how much each polluter contributes to the emission output. However, the amount of pollutant emissions that vehicles emit on a daily basis depends on numerous factors, for example on individual driving behavior.

It very much is not. Fear is effective.
