Tesla Faces Lawsuit Over Factory Emissions
American automaker Tesla is facing a lawsuit filed by the non-governmental organization “Environmental Democracy Project” regarding air quality at the company’s Fremont, California, factory.
In the complaint filed in San Francisco federal court, the environmental group accuses Tesla of violating the federal Clean Air Act “hundreds of times since January 2021” due to harmful emissions from its Fremont plant.
Tesla has been criticized by environmental groups for its production practices, even as the company touts the environmental benefits of driving electric vehicles.
