My next thought was about all the ICE golf carts here in TV Land - and about how clean burning are those vehicles? I would bet that every one of the ICE golf carts they are polluting about as much as 5 newer cars or trucks. And I KNOW THIS.........because I can SMELL them as they go by on a residential street. Sit out and read a book within 15 ft of a residential street and just observe the smell of gasoline after a golf car goes past.
If I were making rules for TV Land, I would give a YEARLY cash bonus of $600 for every residential home that has an Electric golf car and $200 for every E-bike.

We have a battery electric cart. For several reasons. I hate to have to hold my breath in tunnels.
I understand they are not for all. So be it. Fine for us. A choice.
And yes. Seldom hear about small 2 cycle engines and their pollution. All the lawn equipment. No pollution controls at all. I also have a batt elec lawn mower and trimmers. I’m not a “Green” guy, but like the convenience of electric tools. No mess with gas or oils etc.
