How to disclose as a company

Companies are asked to disclose through CDP by their customers and investors. By completing CDP's questionnaires on climate change, forests and water security, companies will identify ways to help them manage their own environmental risks and opportunities as well as providing vital information back to their customers and investors, and to the market through research, insights and financial products and services.
