Climate Risk: How Is California’s SB-261 Impacting Resilience & Adaptation Planning?
California has adopted legislation that will require U.S. entities with annual total revenues greater than $500 million, and doing business in the state, to publish a climate-related financial risk report by January 1, 2026, and biannually thereafter. Later in the year, U.S. entities doing business in the state with annual total revenues greater than $1 billion will be required to begin reporting greenhouse gas emissions. Is your company prepared to meet these requirements?
To speak to some of the complexities around the California climate laws, Nasdaq recently hosted a webinar, Climate Risk: How is California’s SB-261 impacting resilience & adaptation planning? Sustainability professionals Natasha Tuck, Director of Sustainability and ESG at Dolby, Michael Littenberg, Partner, and Global Head of the ESG, CSR, Business and Human Rights Compliance Practice at Ropes at Ropes & Gray, and Bob Languell, Manager of the Corporate Climate Data Fee Implementation and Enforcement Support Section of CARB, shared their insights about the current legislative landscape.
