Exxon Investigated

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has subpoenaed EXXONMobile as part of an investigation of the fossil fuel and petrochemical industries. Specifically, he seeks info on the role they have played in deceiving the public about the harmful effects of plastic production and the limitations of plastic recycling.

“Enough is enough,” Bonta said in an April 28, 2022 press release.  “This first-of-its-kind investigation will examine the fossil fuel industry’s role in creating and exacerbating the plastics pollution crisis – and what laws, if any, have been broken in the process.”
