The Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index 2011
What does a disclosure score represent?
Generally, companies scoring within a particular range exhibit similar levels of commitment to, and experience of, disclosure. The indicative description of each level is provided below for guidance only; investors should read individual company responses to understand the context for each business.
How is the disclosure score determined?
In determining the disclosure score for each company, we assess the following:
• The level of understanding and disclosure of company-specific exposure to climate-related risks and opportunities.
• The level of strategic focus and commitment to understanding the business issues related to climate change, emanating from the top of the organization.
• The extent to which a company has measured its carbon emissions.
• The extent of the internal data management practices for understanding GHG emissions, including energy use.
• The frequency and relevance of disclosure to key corporate stakeholders.
• Whether the company uses third party or external verification of emissions data to promote greater confidence and usage of the data.
