    Most pollution from cars comes from the tires, not the gas burning. If you drive any car at all, you’re the problem

      Citation needed… tires are a problem, but gasoline is farm worse pollution overall. Unless you cherry pick pollutant.

        I believe most of the microplastics that are in everything we consume come from car tires. So probably less a climate change problem, but still an issue.
