In a major regulatory shift, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed ending its Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) – a move that could significantly impact climate accountability across industries.
Since 2009, the GHGRP has required around 8,000 large emitters to report their greenhouse gas emissions annually. These reports have become foundational for climate modeling, policy, and corporate climate risk disclosures.
Experts warn that eliminating this data stream would undermine efforts to track emissions trends, evaluate progress, and support transparent carbon accounting across the value chain.
This proposal signals a concerning rollback at a time when transparent, science-based emissions data is more crucial than ever. Weigh in before the November 3rd deadline 🗓️
