California’s climate disclosure laws introduce mandatory reporting of greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related financial risks for companies meeting specific revenue and have operations in California. Is your organization subject to these rules?

Companies operating in California with annual revenues exceeding $500 million will be required to comply with regulations. With initial compliance deadlines beginning as early as January 1, 2026, the window to act is narrowing quickly. Compliance will require cross-functional coordination, comprehensive climate data infrastructure, and alignment with frameworks like the GHG Protocol and TCFD.

Join us for our webcast, Prepare Your Business for California Climate Disclosures, to learn what’s required, who’s impacted, and how to prepare for upcoming reporting deadlines.
