It depends entirely on how big your equipment is.
If you're just doing a lab experiment where you've got a beaker of salt water and a battery, there's nothing to worry about. (I've done that often.)
If you're an industrialist planning to electrolyze tons of salt water at a time with your own high voltage line direct from the hydroelectric dam, you've got environmental concerns big time.
