No, electric cars don't emit carbon dioxide but some electricity comes from fossil fuels which releases carbon dioxide. Although electrics are don't emit pollution, there are still some drawbacks. Electric cars are inefficient, they can only power up to a certain speed and the fuel needs to be filled up often.

Do air conditioners emit carbon dioxide?

Air conditioners do not emit carbon dioxide because they are sealed systems. Their electric motors are also emission free unlike gas or electric engines. However, most electricity is still generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so any use of air conditioners has a carbon footprint (that is, carbon dioxide emissions).
