Just need speed bumps. Speed bumps every few blocks on every street where the limits are below 60km/h. There's no more sure way short of rebuilding the entire roads.
That will certainly fuck the environment, up to tripling the emissions per mile of vehicles. Well done.
There's a study that says most pollution from passenger vehicles is from tire dust.
Linky?

That says tire pollution is a big problem but I can’t find where it backs up your claim that it’s the biggest pollutant from cars.
