Annual city-wide emissions for more than 30 global cities. Includes information about how cities measured emissions (primary protocol).

Annual city-wide emissions for more than 100 global cities. Includes information about how cities measured emissions (primary protocol), as well as why emissions rose/fell since prior reporting period.

Cities house half the world’s population but represent almost two-thirds of global energy demand and 70% of carbon emissions from the energy sector. Therefore, our cities have a vital role to play in the transition to a sustainable economy. And across the world, cities are already taking action. Explore which cities have ambitious action to cut emissions and reduce their climate impact.

In 2017, Over 120 cities used the Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventories (GPC) methodology to calculate their emissions. This is a 70% increase on the previous year. Explore cities emissions inventory data to better understand what cities are managing.

Risks from climate change identified and reported by city governments. Includes a list of the anticipated effects of climate change, timescale, and seriousness

Emissions reduction targets for all reporting cities in 2015. Includes baseline emissions, baseline year, percentage reduction target, and other details. Some cities report multiple targets.

Catalog of actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in cities, as reported by city governments participating in CDP in 2014. Activities are tagged by sector and cities provide detailed descriptions of each activity. Some cities also provide estimates of the total anticipated lifetime emissions that will be reduced from each activity.

This data was collected in partnership by CDP and ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability.

The dataset contains all city-wide emissions reduction targets publicly disclosed in 2018 and 2019.

Please note that the 2018 data on city-wide emissions reduction targets is still in the process of being updated. If you have any questions, please contact cities@cdp.net.
