According to the company,

In 1998 it was reported that a seven hour ride on a 2 stroke conventional watercraft kicks out more pollution than an old model car driving 100,000 miles. As such they are reportedly one of the top pollutants to water in the United States. It was estimated in 2001 that air pollution from personal water craft imposes at least 240 million dollars a year in healthcare costs to Americans. The ECO will produce absolutely zero emissions. No more gasoline expelled into the water or toxic fumes making swimmers nauseous.
