Pollution seems to be measured in the amount of CO2 released and the amount of CO2 released is proportional to the amount of gasoline burned.

My cart gets very close to 50mpg while my car gets more like 30mpg. Every mile that I choose to drive my cart rather than my car reduces the amount of CO2 I produce.
Cars probably emit less pollutants/unburnt gas than a golf cart due to emission controls on cars. Just drive behind a golf cart and through a tunnel
