CDD

Carbon data disclosure (CDD) refers to the practice of publicly reporting information about a company's greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs).

Carbon data disclosure (CDD) refers to the practice of publicly reporting information about a company's greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs). This information is typically disclosed in a non-financial or sustainability report and can include details about the company's carbon footprint, energy use, and emissions from products, operations, transportation, and supply chains.

CDD is becoming increasingly important, as businesses seek to reduce their environmental impact and respond to growing concerns about climate change. By disclosing their carbon data, they can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and provide investors, customers, and other stakeholders with information about their environmental performance and increase company transparency.

In many countries, carbon data disclosure is already a legal requirement for certain companies. Additionally, there are various reporting frameworks and standards that companies can follow to ensure consistent and comparable reporting of carbon data, such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) or the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
