Beginning in 2008, these organizations must prepare an annual Carbon Neutral Action Report detailing actions taken to minimize greenhouse gas emissions. Each organization must publicly disclose their plans and actions by the end of June the following year. Reports for 2008 and 2009 must include descriptions of emissions reduction efforts and future plans, in compliance with regulatory requirements.
