Exxon is firing back at California’s lawsuit about alleged deceptive marketing message involving plastics. In the lawsuit, Attorney General Rob Bonta accuses the oil giant of convincing the public that recycling plastic is safe for the environment while increasing its production of the polymers that go into single-use plastics. Late Monday, Exxon said “For decades, California officials have known their recycling system isn’t effective. They failed to act, and now they seek to blame others.” The statement adds, “To date, we’ve processed more than 60-million pounds of plastic waste into usable raw materials, keeping it out of landfills.”
