CDP Europe Reports

Europe has some of the world's most ambitious environmental policies - but how are companies, cities and financial institutions progressing against those goals?

With thousands of European companies disclosing to CDP and hundreds of European cities, the CDP Europe Report showcases this dataset and brings novel and highly relevant insights to our key stakeholders and the wider market.

CDP Europe Reports give vital insights to companies, cities, investors and policymakers across climate change, water, and forests.

Our CDP Europe report is launched and disseminated each year at the CDP Europe Awards.
