New U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules require public companies to disclose material Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as defined by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP), in their SEC filings. Large accelerated filers must disclose their emissions starting in 2026, and accelerated filers who are not smaller reporting companies (SRC) or emerging growth companies (EGC) must do so starting in 2028.
