This week, CDP’s online response system (ORS) will close for 2023 corporate disclosures. If your organization set aside resource this year to provide environmental data through CDP, we thank you for your efforts. Organized, usable corporate environmental data is driving unprecedented transformation in the global economy, with CDP’s networks of investors and purchasing companies utilizing it to unlock the financial opportunities of environmental stewardship.
We are not, however, moving fast enough. July 2023 was the Earth’s hottest month on record, deforestation continues at an alarming rate, and the majority of the world's population live in water-insecure countries. As your organization transitions out of the 2023 disclosure cycle and look towards 2024, we encourage you to leverage the support that CDP Accredited Solutions Providers can provide. Covering a broad range of services and running the gamut of sustainability expertise, these trusted partners can help take you beyond disclosure and toward environmental leadership.
