European governments have been accused of underestimating the health risks from shipping pollution, the Guardian reported. The criticism follows research showing that one huge container ship can emit almost the same amount of cancer- and asthma-causing chemicals as 50 million cars. Shipping is responsible for 3.5% to 4% of all greenhouse-gas emissions.https://dialogue.earth/content/uploads/2024/04/Dialogue-Earth-logo_Thumbnail.png1200675
