CDP commends the global drive for mandatory environmental disclosures over the past 12 months. This includes the UK’s mandatory climate disclosures, the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG)’s Draft European Sustainability Reporting Standards, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s proposed climate disclosure rule in the U.S., and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)’s draft Climate disclosure standard. For the past 20 years, CDP’s global, market-led approach has laid the groundwork for this sea change in environmental reporting, providing proof of concept and thought leadership as mandatory disclosure frameworks develop. Looking forward, CDP continues to pave the way for stakeholders to demonstrate environmental leadership across Climate Change, Forests, and Water Security, with biodiversity, nature, land use, and oceans on the horizon. By disclosing through CDP, organizations have built the capacity to meet these baseline mandatory disclosure requirements. For those looking to stay ahead of the curve and unlock the competitive advantage of environmental leadership, our roster of expert accredited solutions providers are here to help.

This month, we are excited to announce that Clearloop has come on board as a silver carbon reduction solutions provider in the U.S. Clearloop supports companies of all sizes to meet ESG goals by reclaiming carbon and revitalizing communities through the construction of new solar projects in parts of the country with the least access to renewable energy and the economic opportunities that accompany it. Clearloop uses solar capacity (measured in watts) to reclaim carbon emissions from the grid, providing an added layer of transparency that gives business leaders a tangible model for reporting on carbon reduction and removal efforts.
