Plain-English Summary

The bill would require the EPA to study how companies should measure and report their indirect emissions—the pollution created by their suppliers, customers, and other business partners throughout their supply chain—and then publish official guidance on the best way to do this. This would help standardize how large corporations track and disclose these "scope 3" emissions, which often represent the biggest portion of a company's total environmental impact. The guidance would affect businesses across industries that need to report their environmental footprint to investors, regulators, or the public.
