The Carbon Disclosure Project, more commonly known as CDP, is a not-for-profit charity that runs the global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, states and regions. This environmental reporting standard tracks the worldwide increase in CDP disclosures and includes one of the largest and most comprehensive datasets on corporate and city action environmental impacts.
Whether you’ve been asked to disclose through CDP by your customers and investors or if you are planning to disclose, are already in the process of disclosing or need assistance with CDP questionnaires, UL Solutions can help you realize the global value of an accurate CDP submission.
Providing information on your environmental impact, including climate change, supply chain, water security, forests and more, can benefit your organization by providing mandatory customer and investor requests that:
Help to improve stakeholder confidence
Strengthen requests for proposals (RFPs) with main buyers
