A consumer class-action lawsuit claims Delta Air Lines inaccurately billed itself as the world’s “first carbon-neutral airline” and should pay damages.
A lawsuit filed Tuesday claims Delta Air Lines inaccurately billed itself as the world’s “first carbon-neutral airline” and should pay damages. The consumer class-action complaint, filed in federal court in California, alleges the airline relied onCompanies around the world buy carbon credits to cancel out their carbon releases with projects that promise to absorb carbon dioxide out of the air, or prevent pollution that would’ve happened.
It says benefits from the offsets are likely to be temporary and would have happened even without the firm’s investment. For a carbon credit to be valid, it must provide a benefit that would not have happened otherwise. Berrin argues this enabled the firm to gain market share and charge higher prices. A writer for Nickelodeon, Berrin said she is about to enter her 30s, and climate anxiety is pronounced in people her age.
“They can’t just claim neutrality if that’s not factually accurate,” she said. “Lawsuits in general are very scary, and there are a lot of people who echo my frustrations who may not know their rights or the impact they can make by speaking up.”
