Overview
CDP requests states and regions to disclose their environmental impacts and create a sustainable economy that avoids dangerous climate change. Encouraging states and regions to disclose their environmental information through CDP’s states and regions information request provides the foundation to achieve this mission.
Please respond to the information request using CDP’s Online Response System (ORS), accessed via CDP’s website. You will receive instructions via email on how to access the platform once it opens. This document shows all the questions that states and regions will encounter in the information request.
We invite you to reply to the following questions. The deadline for responses is the 25th July 2018.
The following sources of support are available to guide you in responding to the information request:
