00:01le compagnie che non si adaptano, si falle a perdere,
00:06rispetto a quelli che stanno trasformando oggi.
00:08Noi consiglierò oggi che nessuno può vivere
00:13senza integrare nella sua strategia una componente clima.
00:1825 anni di disclosure, CDP,
00:21la piattaforma mondiale del mondo,
00:24ha recently marato il quarto di un anno anniversario in Paris.
00:27La key takeaway, in un'increasingly uncertaine world,
00:31climate and nature data are more critical than ever.
00:39More than 22,000 companies in over 1,000 cities globally
00:44now report their environmental impact data through CDP.
00:49Reporting disclosure frameworks like CDP
00:52are in fact immensely valuable to business.
00:55It helps you assess where you stand.
00:57Each year, new questions help us push our ambitions further,
01:01challenge us and help us improve.
01:03It makes us smarter.
01:04You can very often find smarter, more creative solutions
01:07when you try to reconcile environmental impact targets and growth.
01:13Climate change and nature loss are rapidly reshaping how businesses operate.
01:18Every business that exists has a dependency on nature in some form or another.
01:24They depend upon water, fresh air, clean air, healthy soil, solid ground.
01:30Therefore, if these services degrade or run out or their cost increases,
01:34it affects your business.
01:35So it's a simple matter of the things that we rely upon.
01:39We cannot assume they last forever at the price that they're provided.
01:42The latest research by CDP shows that those companies turning environmental ambition into action
01:49are gaining a real competitive advantage.
01:52In Europe leaders, the businesses that achieve the highest score cut emissions in the past 12 months
01:5760% faster than their peers.
02:00A move that unlocked 67 billion euros in financial opportunities.
02:06Why do companies disclose is the question I think that we all have to keep in the front of our
02:11mind.
02:11And the reason why companies disclose is not because they would like to have data.
02:15It's because they need to use that data in order to be able to convince their customers
02:20that they are the companies to work with to keep them in their investable universe.
02:25So this is not a burden.
02:26This is a benefit and it's absolutely core to doing business.
02:30CDP's latest corporate health check also put Europe in top spot globally.
02:3516% of companies reached leadership level in climate just in front of businesses in the Asia-Pacific region
02:42and well ahead of Latin and North America.
02:45We're delighted to see that Europe and Asia-Pacific is really moving from strength to strength.
02:51I think that the U.S. is lagging behind.
02:54At the same time, those disclosures are still coming in.
02:57In Europe, we see more and more funds of pension
02:59who become even more demanding.
03:02We challenge them to be even more efficient
03:06in the capacity to monitor well and challenge the businesses
03:11on their climate strategies.
03:14We have a responsibility as a leader in our industry to engage all our ecosystems.
03:19For example, we ask our suppliers, top suppliers of L'Oréal,
03:22to join CDP and disclose in CDP so we can measure their progress on the CDP ratings.
03:31The direction of travel for many here then is clear.
03:34Companies that adapt and build resilience will thrive long term.
03:39I think we're debating not the why but the how.
03:43And how do we move faster?
03:44How do we use the tools and the data that's available?
03:47I'm obviously optimistic.
03:48There's still many people who are not doing enough quickly enough and clearly enough
03:52and we need to help them understand the benefits of doing so.
03:55We need to stop thinking about sustainability only as a compliance,
04:00but we need to think of sustainability as an enabler for more innovation,
04:05for building more resilience and for creating possibilities for growth in the long term.
04:18The Global Nonprofit's Annual Europe Awards celebrate the continent's most transparent businesses.
04:25If we think back 25 years, disclosure of climate data did not exist at all.
04:31So for the last 25 years CDP has been working with not only those that are in the environmental ecosystem,
04:38but those that are in the financial ecosystem, the economic ecosystem and the policy making ecosystem.
04:44I think we should be proud.
04:46More than a quarter of a century on, CDP continues to play a key role in driving progress towards a
04:53more sustainable future.
