73% Informative
California accuses Exxon of fueling global plastic waste pollution by misleading the public about the limitations of recycling.
A public nuisance claim is one that can be brought against defendants based on behavior that interferes with a right that belongs to the general public.
The amount of money the defendant must pay depends on the cost of abatement.
Exxon has denied the allegations, arguing that recycling works and that California itself failed to correct problems in its recycling system.
