Thousands of companies submit annual climate disclosures to CDP for independent assessment against its scoring methodology. LVS is among 9% of corporations participating in CDP’s climate change program to be awarded a position on the Climate A List, in recognition of its actions to reduce emissions and mitigate climate change in the past reporting year. “Las Vegas Sands is devoted to environmental stewardship through the work of our Sands ECO360 Global Sustainability Program,” said Robert Goldstein, president and chief operating officer of Las Vegas Sands. “This important designation by the CDP reflects our commitment to being an international leader in sustainable building and business practices.” The Climate A List is released in CDP’s [Out of the starting blocks: Tracking progress on corporate climate action](https://www.cdp.net/en/research/global-reports/tracking-climate-progress-2016) report today. The report, which establishes the baseline for corporate climate action, reveals that global corporations have started the transition to a low-carbon economy and some are already capitalizing on the opportunities this affords. Companies’ progress on reducing emissions in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement will be tracked against this baseline in future annual reports. CDP’s chief executive officer Paul Simpson says: “We congratulate the 193 A List companies that are leading the charge towards our low carbon future. Companies are key actors in enabling the global economy to achieve its new climate goals, and the leadership of this group points the way for others to take bold action and capitalize on the many opportunities that await.” [The Climate A List, along with the climate scores of all companies publicly taking part in CDP’s climate change program this year, is available on CDP’s website.](https://www.cdp.net/en/research/global-reports/tracking-climate-progress-2016) **About Las Vegas Sands Corp.** Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) is the world's leading developer and operator of Integrated Resorts.
