ClickGreen UK, Toronto has joined New York and London in signing up to a unique carbon reporting scheme. The initiative, organized by global non-for-profit "The Carbon Disclosure Project" (CDP), provides a system for cities worldwide to report on their greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related strategies.
"CDP Cities, in partnership with the C40 and the Clinton Climate initiative (CCI), has asked the largest cities in the world committed to tackling climate change � the 40 member cities and 19 affiliate member cities of the C40 � to voluntarily measure and report to CDP so the cities can proactively manage risks, reduce carbon and further adopt strategies that safeguard the future of cities."
"London, Toronto and New York have already agreed to report their carbon emissions data to CDP."
"Cities play an essential and leading role in accelerating solutions to climate change and C40 cities are already making a massive impact," said David Miller, Mayor of Toronto and chair of C40."
"CDP will provide a reporting platform that allows C40 cities to track their progress on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and share that critical data with each other and around the globe."
