About

CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) piggybacked on the Global Reporting Initiative’s concept of environmental disclosure in 2002, but focused on reporting by individual companies rather than on nations. At the time CDP had just 35 investors signing its request for climate information and 245 companies responding. Today, nearly a fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions are reported through its annual voluntary disclosure system, which has built the most comprehensive collection of self-reported environmental data in the world.The initiative is currently supported by over 800 institutional investors with US$100 trillion in assets. CDP's climate change, forests, and water security programs help businesses submit data to investors and the supply chain program enables suppliers to submit climate, forests, and water security data to their customers. Our speaker will discuss key food supply chain issues that have emerged from this engagement.
