Earlier this fall, a coalition of major institutional investors, asset management firms, the New York Attorney General, Environmental Defense and Ceres petitioned the Securities and Exchange Commission to issue guidance on the obligations of public companies to disclose financial risks they face from climate change and greenhouse gas regulations. The petition has been docketed as SEC File No. 04-547 and is available at:  www.sec.gov/rules/petitions/2007/petn4-547.pdf. The participants will discuss this petition and the issues surrounding it.

This event is sponsored by the Georgetown Environmental Law & Policy Institute (GELPI) and the Georgetown Environmental Law Society.

A Webcast will be available at https://www.law.georgetown.edu/webcast/.
