California SB 253: Turning Compliance Chaos into Confidence — How to Prepare Now for Verified GHG Reporting
California’s new SB 253 Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act is reshaping U.S. greenhouse gas reporting. For EHS and ESG leaders, the challenge isn’t just meeting deadlines; it’s managing unprecedented volumes of Scope 1, 2, and 3 data under audit-level scrutiny.
Join an insider discussion with a CARB-accredited verifier, seasoned sustainability practitioners, and software innovators who have spent decades working with California’s climate programs. Together, they’ll unpack what SB 253 really means for corporations, the practical steps to get audit-ready, and how the right technology and verification partnership can dramatically reduce cost, risk, and stress.
This isn’t another 101 overview — it’s a problem-solving session designed for professionals who need to act now. You’ll learn:
- What sets SB 253 apart as the first U.S. law mandating audited climate disclosures, and why CARB experience matters.
- The realities of limited vs. reasonable assurance, and what verifiers will expect from your data.
- Why Scope 3 reporting is the biggest hurdle (and opportunity) in your compliance roadmap.
- How companies are using CARB-aligned software to streamline data collection, validation, assurance, and disclosure.
- A practical readiness checklist and timeline to position your organization for success before deadlines hit.
Speakers:
- Wes Hawthorne – CARB-Accredited GHG Verifier, Subject Matter Expert
- Snetu Karania – Product Manager, Locus Technologies; former ESG Consultant
