The US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) recently proposed landmark climate-related disclosure rules draw attention to a broad scientific consensus that to avert catastrophic consequences from climate change, the world may need to limit the global increase in temperature to less than 2 degrees Celsius. There are multiple carbon pathways that can help achieve this goal, however, most point to the need to reach net zero emissions across many geographies by approximately the middle of the 21st century. This transition to net zero creates new disclosure obligations, as well as a host of risks and opportunities for businesses and their investors. Join us for a discussion on the above topics featuring McDermott leaders in SEC disclosure, environmental law, insurance and alternative energy.
