Corporate Climate Communications Report 2007 assesses global leading companies' climate change communications, as differentiated from their carbon performance.
CorporateRegister.com, a global directory of corporate social responsibility resources, conducted an analysis of the 335 companies in the Global FT500 which issued a corporate social responsibility report in 2007. The study looked at all the latest CSR reports from the Global FT500, evaluated against 29 climate disclosure elements, ranging from CEO statements to alignment with international standards.
During 2007, two-thirds of the Global FT500 issued a stand-alone non-financial report. The study found out that 44% of these reports included a general, third-party assurance statement. Evaluating these reports, the study reveals that 87 per cent address climate change, with 78 per cent publishing greenhouse gas emissions data.
Further detailed analysis of all 29 climate disclosure elements by region, industry sector and market capitalization is detailed in the document
