Build infrastructure for public transportation and bicycles and such things. Try to eliminate cars.

You can't move food and goods with bicycles and public transportation.

All of my food and goods are moved with bicycles and public transportation.

There's a big hospital not far from where I sit, too. All of the food and goods for 1100 patients there are moved with bicycles and public transportation.

You might argue that you didn't mean all kinds of public tranportation, you meant only the kind of vehicles whose interior is designed to carry people and a bit of luggage. Not the kind that's meant to carry goods for the general public. But why shouldn't the companies that transport for the general public be free to choose vehicles, routing, perhaps even timing to suit the loads and other needs?

Public services like garbage trucks, police, firefighters. There are also private services that heavily depend on driving. Your electrician/plumber has to carry tools that won't fit on a bicycle.

It's a difficult problem for sure. But I don't think we'll ever come up with a truly "clean" personal vehicle like the cars we know today. I think the solution would have to be something like better, cleaner public transit, encouraging people to live in walking/biking distance from their work, encouraging remote work, and reducing car usage overall as much as possible.

Electric cars are better than regular fossil fuel cars, yes. But the article talks about "stopping" climate change, not just making it slightly less bad.

I think this is a don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good scenario along with being a bit more generous with the hyperbole in articles. I think it's fair to read "stopping" climate change as taking substantial steps to begin addressing it.

I think substantial here is debatable.

Far less driving.
