California sues ExxonMobil for misleading public on plastic recycling
In a first of its kind lawsuit, the US state of California has sued ExxonMobil for fraud over plastic recycling. The state's attorney general accuses the oil giant of deceiving the public for decades by promoting recycling as a solution to plastic waste management while knowing that it isn't viable to do so at scale. France 24's Yuka Royer speaks with Alyssa Johl, Vice President of Legal and General Counsel at the Center for Climate Integrity.
