Certainly, I mean that carbon emissions are generally a bigger problem than pollution, so we should probably prioritize that first.

Pollution is really bad. Like, it’s way worse than you’d think it is. Air pollution seems to have driven the entire country crazy for most of the 20th century, and if cities are as violent as they were in 1990 then nobody is going to be interested in saving energy by living in them.

You can't ignore local pollution while attempting to drive down global emissions.
