“There will be a large creation and re-distribution of shareholder value in the transition to a low carbon economy – there will be winners and losers at sector level and within sectors at company level. The winners are more likely to be those businesses that take the time to understand and address this complex area.”

Structure of the Information Request CDP 2010:

Overall the questionnaire is shorter than in 2009 with a number of sub-questions having been removed. Significant changes from CDP 2009:

– Risk identification process - Describe your company’s process for identifying significant risks and/or opportunities from climate change and the process for assessing the degree to which they could affect your business, including the financial implications.

– Link between climate change and strategy - Please describe how your overall group business strategy links with actions taken on risks and opportunities identified, targets and reporting.

– More granularity – Data accuracy and assurance questions broken down by emissions scope.

– A new specific sector supplement for Oil and Gas companies.

Strategy

Importance of Developing a Strategy:

– Enables companies to make better expansion/ investment decisions

Title of presentation

Strategy

Pfizer: Three separate targets: 1. Reduce CO2 emissions by 35% per $ million of revenue by 2007 from the baseline year 2000;2. To reduce worldwide CO2 emissions on an absolute basis by 20% from 2008 to 2012 (baseline year

2007);3. Meet 35% of Pfizer’s electricity needs by 2010 through the use of "clean" energy technologies.

VS.

Johnson & Johnson:One absolute target:7% absolute reduction target by 2010 against a 1990 baseline.

Assessment

How response quality is assessed

Q) What activities are you undertaking or planning to undertake to reduce your emissions/energy use?Indicative answer:

Energy efficiency

Many companies implement initiatives to save energy in the use of refrigeration, thus reducing energy use and corresponding carbon emissions.

Since CDP 2008 this initiative has been implemented at 10 of its sites (4 in Europe, 3 in Australia and 3 in China). Each year this is expected to save xxx Mt CO2e.

For example, in the Sydney site the initiative was implemented in December 2008 by replacing the existing refrigeration with xxxxx. This is estimated to have saved xx MWh of energy at the Sydney site over the four month period since its implementation.

The activity is named and described – one point

The response is specific to the company – two points

Note: Some companies indicated that based on advice of general counsel, they knowingly did not provide a more detailed response.

Detail, values and a case study are given where appropriate –three points

Helpful Tips

Don’t leave questions blank – always provide a full response, even if an area is not applicable or if a question is seemingly redundant

Leverage the supplemental Guidance

Provide answers that are specific with as much relevant detail as requested

Don’t cross–reference your responses from another question

Use the main text fields provided for your responses and not the Further Information field

Be careful to address all points listed in the questions

Response deadline May 31st

Helpful Tips

Climate Disclosure Standards Board:CDSB works to develop a globally accepted framework, based on existing standards, for corporate reporting on climate change.

Seeks to: • Elicit information of value to reporting organisations in devising and implementing their

business strategies and to users of climate change-related disclosures made in mainstream reports.

• Enhance the efficiency of capital allocation by investors, enabling them to integrate climate change-related costs into their analyses.

• Provide corporations with greater certainty on disclosure requirements and encourage the consistency.

• Provide conceptual and practical input into deliberations by regulatory agencies.

CDP Reporter members have identified significant value to their organisations

“The new analytical tools will allow us to benchmark our improving emissions performance against thousands of other businesses and seek out further opportunities to drive down our carbon footprint. E.ON UK will continue to invest in the coming years in reducing carbon in our business, and new and improved CDP systems will help guide this important work.” Richard Scott, Head of Consultancy, E.ON Sustainable Energy

“CDP has recognised the value of the data disclosing companies provide, which has not been readily available in the past. That's why we decided to become a founding member of the new Reporter Services initiative. We see benefits for investors too - providing disclosing companies with easy access to benchmarking data will drive further improvement in climate change disclosures and data provided to inform investment decisions.” Mark Joiner, Executive Director Finance, National Australia Bank Limited

“CDP networking events and forums will have two real benefits for RBS Group. Firstly we get to meet other companies and learn how they have addressed similar challenges to our own. Secondly it provides a chance to discuss how we can support potential clients in achieving their low-carbon objectives. “Sefton Laing, Environmental Programme Coordinator, RBS Group
