BREAKING: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission just voted to finalize rules to require companies to disclose climate-related financial risks.
SEC's summary confirms there are major rollbacks to the proposed rule, including emissions disclosure requirements.
Initial response from Sierra Club's Ben Jealous:
🚨 Sierra Club & Earthjustice are considering a legal challenge to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's arbitrary removal of key provisions from the final climate disclosure rule, while also taking action to defend the SEC’s authority to implement such a rule.
