CDP CEO talks climate, nature and the future of sustainability disclosure
In the latest episode of the ESG Insider podcast we sit down with CDP CEO Sherry Madera on the sidelines of Climate Week NYC.
CDP is a not-for-profit charity that runs a global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, states and regions to manage their environmental impacts. Sherry talks to us about how the organization has evolved since she took the reins nearly a year ago. She explains how CDP fits into the broader landscape of standard setters like the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and rules like the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
She also explains how nature plays an increasingly prominent role in CDP’s approach to disclosure.
“This year, CDP created a combined questionnaire, which included forests [and] water in our base climate questionnaire because we saw that these things were not separate,” Sherry says. "If we are not protecting nature, we are not protecting overall climate either.”
