Automobile usage is a small part of total fuel consumption. like 1/5 or less.
of vehicular use. well under 10% of all petroleum consumption, when you

is the single most important feedstock for organic chemicals like
virtually all synthetic fabrics, plastics and solvents.

Your arithmetic is quite sobering.
