Requested content
General
- Provide information about your operations to help data users understand your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory and corporate climate change strategy. Include information on your business divisions and your emissions-generating activities (e.g. extraction and/or processing/refining of natural resources, electricity generation, transportation, manufacturing etc.).
- This information helps data users understand your company’s emissions profile and differences in emissions figures between peer companies.
- You may also provide any other information which is relevant to your disclosure.
Explanation of terms
- Organization: Throughout this questionnaire, “your organization” refers collectively to all the companies, businesses, other entities or groups that fall within the definition of your reporting boundary (provided in C0.5). This term is used interchangeably with “your company”, but CDP recognizes that some disclosing organizations may not consider themselves to be, or be formally classified, as “companies”.
