The City of Miami has landed itself a spot on the CDP's 2024 A-List for its exceptional efforts in environmental stewardship. Among the nearly 1,000 cities globally that stepped into the ring of environmental disclosures this past year, Miami powered through to secure an "A" grade, singling it out as one of just 29 U.S. cities, and the sole champion in Florida, to snag this prestigious accolade, as per an announcement released by the city.
Miami has stepped up its climate game in 2024, earning a top score of A from the CDP, an improvement from last year’s A-. The higher grade comes even as CDP raised the bar for scoring, making it tougher for cities to earn top marks. Miami’s success reflects its strong focus on tackling climate risks, cutting emissions, and planning for a more resilient, sustainable future. This recognition highlights the city’s growing leadership in climate action and transparency.
CDP, which runs the world’s only independent environmental disclosure system, closely evaluated how cities are tackling the climate crisis. "This marks a significant achievement, as the City earned an A- in 2023," the City of Miami articulated in its declaration. "The 2024 recognition reflects continued progress and leadership in climate adaptation, mitigation, and data transparency."
