Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Wednesday reintroduced the Climate Risk Disclosure Act, legislation that would require public companies to disclose their exposure to climate-related risks.
Originally introduced in 2018, the bill, if passed, is intended “to help investors appropriately assess climate-related risks, accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to cleaner and more efficient energy sources, and reduce the risks of both environmental and financial catastrophe,” Warren, a presidential candidate, said in a statement.
