Wanted: More Environmental Disclosures from 1,320 Different Organizations (.PDF Download)
Since its inception in 2000, CDP has been running a global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, states and regions to manage their environmental impacts. Formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project, it is a not-for-profit charity focused on environmental reporting. It tracks investors, companies, and cities that are taking action to build sustainable economies by measuring and understanding their environmental impacts.
This year, CDP is putting an even brighter spotlight on 1,320 organizations that it says need to boost their reporting of environmental risks. With a disclosure platform centered on three risks—climate change, deforestation and water security—the group provides investors with data that they can use to analyze the profiles of their current or potential investment targets.
