California sues Exxon over 'deceptive practices' around plastic recycling
Briefly

California's lawsuit against ExxonMobil reveals an extensive campaign of deception regarding recycling's effectiveness, exposing how the oil giant has contributed to the plastic pollution crisis.
Attorney General Rob Bonta emphasized that the investigation demonstrated Exxon's deliberate misleading of the public about the capabilities and progress of its so-called 'advanced recycling' technology.
ExxonMobil responded by asserting that advanced recycling represents a legitimate solution to the plastic waste issue, indicating that litigation alone doesn't address the broader problem.
The lawsuit seeks to hold Exxon accountable for exacerbating plastics pollution and aims to secure a fund and penalties to rectify the situation.
