Specifically, it's sulfur they're talking about, not CO2, not CO, not NOx, not particulates, not lead. And the reason they put out so much sulfur is because they burn high-sulfur fuel.
I'll accept as fact the point that the 16 largest ships in the world emit more sulfur than all the cars in the world, although it seems a stretch.
