California sues ExxonMobil, alleging misleading recyclability claims for plastic products.
California has sued ExxonMobil, alleging the company misled the public about the recyclability of its plastic products. The state claims ExxonMobil's "advanced recycling" methods are ineffective, converting most recycled plastic into fuel rather than reusable materials. It asserts that the process produces nearly virgin plastics and cannot manage significant amounts of waste. The lawsuit seeks penalties and aims to prevent further misleading claims regarding plastic recycling.
