08:07 AM EDT, 07/15/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Lululemon Athletica ( LULU ) is facing a class action lawsuit filed Friday that alleges the company portrays itself as environmentally friendly "when, in reality, they are causing significant damage to the environment."

The lawsuit, filed in US District Court for the Southern District of Florida, claims that the company has duped consumers with a worldwide "greenwashing" campaign.

"Lululemon's marketing campaign messages are unfair, false, deceptive, and misleading to reasonable consumers as they portray Lululemon as something it is not," according to the complaint. "Lululemon is responsible for significant greenhouse gas emissions, landfill waste, and release of microplastics into the environment."

Lululemon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
