PepsiCo has been sued by New York state for plastic pollution along Buffalo River that is allegedly contaminating the water and harming wildlife.
Last week Coca-Cola, Danone and Nestle were accused of making misleading claims about their plastic bottles.
PepsiCo is the world’s second biggest food company and many other big corporations have been facing lawsuits by local authorities about their impact on the environment.
“No company is too big to ensure that their products do not damage our environment and public health,” said Attorney General Letitia James.
When her office conducted a survey of all types of waste collected at 13 sites along the Buffalo River last year, it found that PepsiCo’s single-use plastic packaging was the most significant.
It added that this was a “complex issue” which required involvement from “businesses, municipalities, waste-reduction providers, community leaders and consumers”.
