You can't make this chit up. Letitia James is suing PepsiCo for allegedly polluting the Buffalo River.
That's right, she says PepsiCo is responsible, not the BLUE CITY SLOBS that actually committed the heinous acts. They are just victims I guess, forced to litter the river uncontrollably by "PepsiCo’s irresponsible packaging and marketing."

Quote:State Attorney General Letitia James said Wednesday she filed a lawsuit against PepsiCo, alleging the Westchester-based food and beverage conglomerate is continuing to pollute the environment through its use of plastic bottles and food wrappers.
Specifically the suit alleges PepsiCo contributed significantly to high levels of plastic pollution along the Buffalo River in Erie County, “contaminating drinking water and harming wildlife.” James also alleges it failed to warn consumers about the potential health and environmental risks of its single-use plastic packaging, and misleads consumers and the public about its efforts to combat plastic pollution.
“No company is too big to ensure that their products do not damage our environment and public health.
