Hi Alex, thanks for the wonderful deep dive. I am really amazed and excited with steps taken by California Govt. Indeed, this is a need of an hour. As a consultant in one of the Big 4, I believe there is tremendous opportunity out there providing assurance services to investors/businesses on the emission performance. Further, there would be requirement of tools which makes effort towards estimating emission footprint standardized, consistent and transparent. Consultants will also have a role to play here. At the end, I just wonder how much difficult it will become for consultanting firms disclosing their emissions since majority of it can be contributed to scope 2 and scope 3 activities - Business Travel, Lease and Commutes.
