CDP is a non-profit organization that evaluates the transparency and performance of organizations in the categories of Climate, Water and Forests in the world’s most important investor questionnaire.
As a non-profit, CDP (formerly “Carbon Disclosure Project”) has set itself the goal of motivating companies and municipalities to disclose their environmental impact to promote investment in a sustainable economy. To this end, CDP collects and assesses data and information on environmental impacts, targets and strategies on behalf of investors on an annual basis. Participation is voluntary using a standardized questionnaire on the topics of Climate Change, Water Security and Forests. The rating scale corresponds to American school grades from A (leadership, top score) to F (insufficient disclosure of information).
