Business fuels climate change, then climate change
hurts business.
Climate Change Is Bad for Business, and Vice Versa.
A New Rule Would Require Companies to Disclose Just How Bad
Sign Now
The planet is literally on fire, and 'protecting the
economy' is the classic excuse to dodge urgently needed climate action and
reform. But in a twist of irony, climate change is bad for business, too.
Luckily, the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) is stepping up with
a new rule proposal that would require companies to disclose how global
warming affects their business, along with how those businesses contribute
to climate change in the form of emissions data.
Supply chain issues, public health concerns,
agricultural disruptions, and disturbances to infrastructure are all
becoming increasingly common as the climate changes -- and these all affect
a company's bottom line. Having to disclose these potential issues, along
with how a business is contributing to the climate crisis, is sure to push
companies in the right direction because money is the ultimate motivator.
Investors can use this information to choose the most sustainable, stable
businesses to get behind -- pushing companies to develop green, secure
practices and policies.
The comment period is currently open for members of
the public to vocalize their support for the new rule. Sign the petition now
to tell the SEC: monitoring climate impacts is vital! We support the rule
change!
Thank you,
