Gasoline industry is the worst offender, the single worst source of trouble. If we remove it alone, we will be fine with everything else, and there is no single thing we can do that will bring even comparable effect. Stopping meat farming, maybe, but that's it. If we have to focus on something, and given all the political climate, we have to focus on something, there is nothing else we can focus on.
I don't have all the math at hand, but I bet if we totally do the calculations, Netherlands level of public infrastructure but no EV will be at least comparable levels of destructive as American level of car-dependancy, but EV only.
