Reducing the chemicals needed to produce dye-stock does reduce cancer. What is done is the chemical factories are being micro-sized into packetized-factories called bacteria. The toxic and mutagenic chemicals and by-products are all kept within the micro-packetized factory, and not only that the micro-factory is very effecient at using the minimal amounts needed and only when needed, usually turing the really bad bad toxins harmless in some side reaction that immediately follows a toxic step in the dye-producing process.

Yeah,
But I bet it's heck on the ozone layer.

(wouldn't it be a hoot if it turns out the magic ingrediant was the vinegar?)
