The Biodiversity Plan, agreed at COP15 in 2022, requires governments, organizations and financial institutions to start their biodiversity disclosure journey.    Biodiversity disclosure is fundamental to its implementation:    💡 Disclosing organizations better understand how they depend on and impact nature  🪙 The data improves investors’ ability to price-in nature-related risks and opportunities This year, we’ve integrated our questionnaire, meaning we’re inviting all companies to report biodiversity data for the first time. Our questionnaire is dynamic so companies will be presented with questions that are relevant to them, without duplication, alongside our incorporated guidance. This will provide policymakers, investors, lenders, and procurement teams with even more and better biodiversity data. Disclose today: https://lnkd.in/eJBRan9S

This year we've made some changes to our corporate questionnaire. We want to empower organizations to better assess the environmental risks, impacts and opportunities in line with incoming regulation.   Organizations reporting on more than one environmental theme this year will now use a single questionnaire rather than three individual questionnaires. CDP's corporate questionnaire is made up of 450 questions, and it’s dynamic, so it presents only relevant questions, without duplication, alongside our incorporated guidance.   Our questionnaire is designed to create the data needed to act. We ask the right questions to ensure that capital markets, procurement teams and the data ecosystem have decision-useful environmental data.   Learn more about the changes we've made this year: https://lnkd.in/eJBRan9S
