* US electricity is about 1/3 goal, and constantly using less coal. * Emissions out of a tailpipe happen in cities and places with people. Power Plants tend to be more remote, so the toxic gasses are emitted away from most people. * Even if EV's were 100% coal powered, you would still be better off in CO2 emissions, because coal plants + EV is more efficient than digging up oil, refining it, transporting it to gas stations, and using in tiny, mobile, low use, low cost power plants.
