I just found that the 16 largest Ships emit as much as all cars. Did not check the source further.
But that really depends on how you measure and define pollution. As others have pointed out container ships are still pretty efficient. But of course they should get better too. Like everything!
As I have said, I did not fact check it further because it is quite late here. Just wanted to give information to that claim and please correct your statement (:

Appreciate it, because you and I probably read the same stats but I was pulling it from memory from whenever I heard it (like 7-10 years ago).
