Do you think urban transport using UAVs would have a significant impact on pollution reduction? (youtu.be)

Sorry for MS "commercial" but I think about tinkering with the AirSim framework. I suppose that the most pressing issue to solve within UAV technology is air traffic control and navigation of these vehicles to ensure safety.

That's right, but still each electrically powered UAV trip seems to be better to air quality and CO_2 emissions than a trip by a combustion-engine-powered car.

Not necessarily. I think many people, including me, are perfectly happy spending whole day at home. It is very convenient when you can order something almost to your door, and it would be ideal without burning fossil fuels or exploiting delivery people.
