An EPA document shows that a new Chevron fuel ingredient has a lifetime cancer risk more than 1 million times higher than what the agency usually finds acceptable — even greater than another Chevron fuel’s sky-high risk disclosed earlier this year.

wouldnt the exhaust go into the air though? I suppose some of those exhaust particles would precipitate into the water - so maybe the algae would get cancer? can single celled organisms even get cancer?
not sure what the issue is - if you spend your life out in the sun, you’re going to get skin cancer. not sure who’s going to get exposed to ship exhaust over their entire life. is the risk of actual cancer really that great?
