Would it be safe to say that fossil fuels play a significant role?
Well yeah but natural gas is a lot cleaner than coal (and also a lot cleaner than car exhaust)

So really there is no net benefit. If you do away with cars that run on fossil fuels and switch to electric, that leads to a greater demand for electricity. It would take a massive increase in electricity production to power our daily commuting needs. That demand for fossil fuels would still exist because they would be need it in great quantities to generate electricity.
