mandatory climate reporting

March 5, 2025

Sweeping new climate-related disclosure requirements recently signed into law in California will be due as early as January 2026. The three California requirements for public disclosures cover corporate climate-related financial risk (SB 261) and corporate GHG emissions/targets (SB 253). While these state climate disclosure laws are subject to court challenges, they are still in effect, so companies are collecting data now.

The requirements will impact public and private companies in the U.S. doing business in California, including companies headquartered outside of the state.

If you reply yes to the questions below, you must report your company’s Climate Disclosure starting in 2026.

  1. My company’s gross revenue is over $500M annually (SB 261) or over $1B annually (SB 253)
  2. My company’s ‘doing business in California’ under state tax law, for example, meeting the threshold for payroll compensation in California of over $73.5K annually.

This live educational webinar will highlight these new disclosure requirements for climate disclosures, apply the standards, and provide the related assurance requirements for each. This one-hour webinar is free and relevant to all industries. Meet our panelists.

How will SB 253 and SB 261 impact my business?

Our panelists will explain the carbon accounting expectations, materiality considerations, and what to do now to prepare. We’ll provide an update on the net impact of timely court decisions affecting California requirements, as well as the impact of similar disclosure requirements under the CSRD rules of the European Union.

Start or refine your roadmap for the journey to mandatory reporting and reflect upon the relationship of these disclosures to U.S. firms remaining globally competitive.

This live webinar will run longer than an hour to answer questions posed by those attending. You and your company have the option of asking questions anonymously to protect your privacy. If you must leave early, we will send those registered a recording. SCS Engineers provides educational webinars without a sales pitch and never shares your contact information.
