The California Air Resources Board announced it is deferring the first reporting deadline for Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions under SB 253 from August 10, 2026, to November 10, 2026, while making limited revisions to related regulations. SB 253 requires U.S.-based companies with annual revenues over $1 billion that operate in California to disclose their Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions.
