The auto and energy industries don't pollute because it's fun. They do it in the course of fulfilling our demand for suburban lifestyles.

Or, what if I live in rural America? How do you expect me to give up my car?
What if I already drive less than 10k miles a year?
Commuting from the countryside is one of the things that'll have to go if we are to eliminate emissions. (Farmers and residents of traditional small towns are generally already pretty close to where they need to be when they wake up in the morning).
It's nonsensical to say something like "how do you expect me to give up my car?" with incredulity, and then blame the energy sector for supplying its fuel.
