About the Carbon Disclosure Project

CDP’s mission is to collect and distribute high quality information that motivates investors, corporations and governments to take action to prevent dangerous climate change.

CDP’s annual survey provides a disclosure channel for climate change related data.

CDP acts on behalf of more than 551 institutional investors with a volume of managed assets over US$71 trillion and provides the capital market with a metric of carbon disclosure and carbon performance.

PwC has been the global sponsor of the CDP since 2008. The sponsor role comprises:

• Providing advisory services regarding methodology;
• Scoring all of the responses (approximately 1000) from the Global 500, S&P 500 and FTSE 600 companies;
• Developing the Global 500, S&P 500 and FTSE 350 report on behalf of the CDP;
• Strengthening the link between business and CDP
