Don't tailpipe emissions cause real harm to humans?

Sure they do, but are the harms of CO2 emissions - the only emission anyone seems to care about these days - as high as those of particulate emissions? I am not so sure. CO2 emissions have some upside but I don't think particulate emissions have any.
