Amazon Sued Over Alleged Misleading Sustainability Claims on Seafood Products
Amazon faces a proposed class-action lawsuit filed in Seattle federal court by consumers alleging misleading environmental claims on seafood sold through its platform. The lawsuit challenges labels such as "dolphin safe," "sustainable," and "wild caught," arguing these representations falsely suggest minimal environmental harm. Plaintiffs contend that many fishing vessels lack public tracking and that a significant portion of imported wild-caught seafood is not responsibly sourced. Amazon has not yet responded to the allegations.
