Hello. Hope you are well. I heartily approve of requiring public corporations to disclose their level of greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related risk. Please uphold this ruling to demand that companies disclose their effort to meet climate targets and greenhouse gas emissions. Please also investigate any ESG investor money managers that may have been providing fraudulent information to their investors. I think that how and to what degree companies disclose their emissions and in turn shape the ability of the financial sector to stave off climate-related risks is hugely important. It is a matter of transparency. I am invested in the stock market, in the S&P 500 and in many companies. I want to know if my investments are in alignment with my values with regards to climate change. I believe I have the right to know, and I believe companies need to disclose their environmental record to their investors. Information on greenhouse gas emissions is important and material to my investment decisions. Thank you! Katherine
