I don't remember hearing or reading anything about carbon dioxide being a toxic pollutant. CO2 is however a major greenhouse effect contributor although pound for pound methane (CH4) is 27x worse than CO2 as a grenhouse effect gas.

Dude, the US EPA declared it a pollutant in 2009 by basically saying the increasing rate of CO2 in the atmosphere is hazardous to the planet's health.
If I were an oil company executive, I'd love the introduction of a ceramic engine, because it would only extend my all-powerful reign over the planet's population under high profits and inadvertent murder.
