I'm not sure about this bill, but it seems like it could be a problem for us. I don't think it's fair to limit the carbon intensity of fuel used by certain vessels. It might end up costing us more money in the long run. I hope they reconsider this.

I think this bill is a good idea because it will help reduce pollution from ships. It's important to protect our environment and this bill is a step in the right direction. I'm glad that they are taking action to limit the carbon intensity of fuel used by certain vessels. It's important to think about the future and how we can make a positive impact on our planet.
