Producing isn't actually enough, let's talk about the full cycle. Even if you produce it cleanly, you'll need to store it + production of the turbins ...

And battery production (and mining for materials) pollutes the environment as well.

So let's not compare only parts of the system ... let's be real here

Most of these things are one time investments (plus maintenance), which you need for non-renewable energies just as well (and one might argue that building oil rigs and refineries and transporting the fuel is more CO2 intensive than windmills and power cables).

People are already working on all of those things.

Even with coal electricity, electric cars have lower total-lifetime CO2 emissions.

Also, the more low-hanging fruit we fix, the more time we have left for the hard stuff.
