(C7.2) Break down your total gross global Scope 1 emissions by country/region.
Change from last year
Minor change
Rationale
By breaking down emissions to country or regional level, information and data can be made available to regions, states and sub-national bodies to help guide the development of emissions-related legislation.

General
- Breaking down emissions to the country level is useful to investors as this is often the level at which emissions-related legislation is introduced. Emissions should be attributed to individual countries wherever possible. CDP considers reporting emissions broken down by country best practice.
- Where states (or other sub-national entities) have the right to introduce emissions-related legislation, companies operating in these states (or other sub-national entities) may consider that breaking down emissions to a sub-national level is more informative. To provide this breakdown, select “Other: please specify” and provide a label for the sub-national entity.
- Where emissions are sufficiently low, or for parts of your business where your inventory does not allow for a country level of granularity, use the available region options. Please see CDP's Technical Note "Country and Regions" for details around the available regions and their constituent countries.
- If you disclose the value for a region that overlaps with a country you are also disclosing, you should report the value for the region minus the emissions of that country. If all emissions breakdowns are added, they should add to your Scope 1 total.
- Due to the difficulties of delineating Asia, CDP has not provided a single "Asia" category. Companies may choose either Asia Middle East (AME) or Asia Pacific (JAPA). Please see the Technical Note “Country and regions” for more information.
Country/Region (column 1)
- Select country/region in accordance with CDP’s Technical Note on “Country and regions”.
Scope 1 emissions (metric tons CO2e) (column 2)
- Report your organization’s greenhouse gas emissions in CO2-equivalent for the country/region selected in column 1.
- Negative numbers are not allowed as organizations are to report gross, not net figures.
- Emissions figures should be for the reporting year only (as defined by your answer to C0.2).
