Plane dust?

Wait until you learn about brakes.
Zero emission car? Ha! Depends on what you classify as an emission.
EVs are also a major improvement for the microdust emitted by breaks, as they mainly use the motor for breaking.

For moderate braking at higher speeds sure, but not for your causal stoppages at intersections or heavier braking events.
I rarely ever use the brakes, even in the city -- I've become accustomed to letting off the gas at the correct distance for the regenerative braking to bring the car to a stop at the line. There's a good chance I might not replace the brakes for 10+ years.
Ban cars.
