No, the only way to stop global warming is if the big corporations release less carbon emissions.
Electric cars run on electricity, most of which is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). Fossil fuels are the main cause of global warming. City air is cleaner if we use electric cars, but the carbon dioxide emissions are rising from the power stations.
When our electricity is generated from renewable sources (solar, wind, water, biofuels etc) or from nuclear energy, then the rate of global warming will slow and eventually stop.

Environmental factors between electric cars and petrol cars?
Internal combustion engines constantly pump out CO2 into the atmosphere and are one of the main leaders in global warming while Electric Cars have Zero Emissions.
Will we have to give up driving cars to stop global warming?
I don't think it could ever happen that people will be prevented from some form of driving. But if the private ownership of vehicles had never happened, the environment would be cleaner. Of course it will never happen! But IS THAT WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE to stop global warming? Or do you think we can stop it by just raising fuel efficiency to 50 MPG? Or by switching to electric cars? Or by carpooling ?
Are hybrid cars causing global warming?
No, hybrid cars were designed to use less fossil fuel, thus slowing global warming.
What else is bad about cars?
it is contributing to global warming.
How do cars affect the temperature?
Global warming/ the fuel
Impact of cars on society?
GLOBAL WARMING FTW!
What are other efforts to help prevent global warming?
You can use electric and solar powered cars instead of gasoline cars;but if you do use a gasoline car, carpool often to use less gas.
Why Ban Cars?
We should ban cars because, it causes Global Warming because of the fumes.
Does an increased use of solar powered cars contribute to global warming?
No, this would have the opposite effect. It would reduce the rate of global warming. Most vehicles run on oil, the burning of which releases greenhouse gases and causes global warming. Solar powered cars have no harmful emissions.
Do immigrants cause global warming?
All humans are causing global warming if they drive cars and use electricity, because most of our cars burn fossil fuel, and most of our electricity is generated by burning fossil fuel. All this burning puts carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which is causing global warming.
Are electric cars accelerating global warming?
This depends upon how the electricity is generated. Electric cars powered by electricity from coal fired power plants reduce local CO2 emissions, but increase them overall. Cars powered by wind, solar, nuclear, or hydrological power emit very little CO2.
Why is global warming starting?
Because of cars cutting down trees and people:(
