What Is CDP?
CDP is a non-profit data aggregator and disclosure system that helps organizations measure and manage risks associated with climate change and resource scarcity. CDP was formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project and has played a leading role in driving corporate climate disclosure and action for more than 20 years. CDP issues organizational scores that are intended to incentivize companies to increase both their action and transparency.
Companies around the world are being pressed to provide greater transparency about their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities, but the many competing standards for disclosure can make this task confusing and time-consuming.
