Description
In this episode, Kaitlyn Allen welcomes Nicholas "Nico" van Aelstyn, a Partner with Sheppard Mullin, and ClimeCo’s David Prieto, Senior Director of Climate & Energy Advisory, to discuss the 2023 California Climate Accountability Act.
The discussion highlights SB 253, the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act, and SB 261, the Climate-Related Financial Risk Act, which address greenhouse gas and climate risk disclosures. While these touch on similar ground as the forthcoming SEC ruling, there are distinct differences, notably related to Scope 3 reporting requirements.
Nico’s legal acumen complements David’s expertise in greenhouse gas accounting, providing a well-rounded perspective. Together, this trio demystifies the practical applications of these regulations, offering valuable insights for companies seeking to understand and meet the impending requirements set to be enacted in the coming years.
