Abstract
The U.S. federal government in 2010 required firms with industrial plants that emit carbon above a threshold amount to report these emissions to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) annually. Commencing in February 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires all of its registrants that are impacted by climate change to disclose the nature of this impact in filings with the SEC. These two actions stand in sharp contrast to a government that failed to ratify the Kyoto Protocol despite being the largest producer of greenhouse gases (GHG) at the time the Protocol was being ratified by most of the nations of the world.
