As environmental and CDP reporting becomes increasingly complex, can you keep up?

CDP submission requirements are constantly changing and becoming more refined. New questions are being added, old ones are updated and scoring is modified.

This means that the data you need to gather to complete your disclosures changes too.

Don’t get left in the dark with CDP reporting

Submitting to CDP’s online response system (ORS) takes time, involves finding data from multiple sources, and must be submitted in a specific format. After dealing with the paperwork, you now have to endure a long wait to receive your score.

How many easy marks have you missed out on due to spending time on excessive admin tasks?

After all this work, how can you be sure your efforts will be reflected in your CDP score?

CDP (formally known as Carbon Disclosure Project) runs the largest global disclosure system, covering thousands of companies, cities, states and regions. For decades businesses have voluntarily disclosed their global greenhouse gas emissions to CDP. By creating a means for voluntary disclosure, CDP have stimulated a more sustainable economy, with investors now requiring organisations to report their greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impacts. Their hope is for this transparent reporting to become a business norm around the world.

The CDP also produces ‘CDP Scores’ on an annual basis. This sees responding companies being scored from a D- to A and aims to incentivise companies to ‘measure and manage’ environmental impacts through the use of CPD questionnaires.

In GHG reporting and accounting, a 'base year' is a year chosen as a basis against which future CDP emissions are compared.

There are three emissions scopes, based of the Green House Gas Protocols (GHG) Corporate Standard. Scope 3 are indirect emissions which result from all other activities and sources that occur in the value chain of the reporting company not covered in scope 2. This includes business travel, commuting, waste, and 3rd party deliveries.

Reporting of all scope 3 emissions is typically not mandatory, unless the organisation is subject to a regulation such as the CSRD in the EU.
