Ceres recently published a report intending to advance the quality of corporate review and disclosure on climate risks and opportunities. This report also provides concrete examples of what investors view as quality disclosure. In this webinar, Jim Coburn, Senior Manager of Ceres' Investor Program and lead author of this report, provides 1) an overview of recent developments in climate disclosure, 2) investor expectations concerning key categories of climate disclosure and 3) a checklist to help companies improve the quality of their disclosure and respond more effectively. Xcel Energy, featured in the report for their good disclosures and a Climate Registered member, shares their experience and insight on preparing an effective response, and what they’ve learned about their operations and business in the process.
