Abstract | Disclosure of information about corporate activities relevant to the climate change phenomenon has increased substantially over the past decade. Climate change disclosures include those about greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity and energy use; participation in emissions trading schemes; corporate governance and strategy in relation to climate change; performance against GHG emissions reduction targets; and regulatory, physical and other risks and opportunities of climate change. While various regulatory requirements to disclose information about GHG emissions and risks related to climate change are emerging in some jurisdictions, climate change-related disclosure in annual and/or sustainability reports or on company websites remains largely voluntary or sustamability reports or on voluntary. |
