California to extend climate bill implementation deadline – but not for companies
Senators have rejected Governor Newsom's proposal to delay the rules by two years.
The California Senate has approved a bill offering a six-month extension to the state’s Air Resources Board to develop and adopt the specific regulations under which companies will have to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions – but the delay doesn’t apply to the disclosures themselves.
On Saturday, August 31, California Senators approved bill SB 219, correcting some of the issues that raised criticism about the state’s upcoming climate disclosure laws.
