Taipei City is the financial, political, and business center. New Taipei City and Taoyuan City are two important manufacturing hubs in northern Taiwan. Taichung City is a center of finance and commerce and the base of precision machinery in central Taiwan. Thanks to the Southern Science Park, Tainan City and Kaohsiung City have become the economic center in southern Taiwan, and both have also actively developed their marine and seaside recreation industries. Reports from the World Economic Forum1 and International Institute for Management Development2 indicate an improvement in Taiwan’s investment environment, and we expect this will attract more investment to Taiwan.

It was an impressive year, with 308 cities reporting on their climate change data (six times more than the number that was reported in the survey’s first year of 2011), making this the largest and most comprehensive survey of cities and climate change published to date by CDP. City governments from Helsinki to Canberra to La Paz participated, including over 90% of the membership of the C40 – a group of the world’s largest cities dedicated to climate change leadership. Approximately half of reporting cities measure city-wide emissions. Together, these cities account for 1.67 billion tonnes CO2e, putting them on par with Japan and UK emissions combined. 60% of all reporting cities now have completed a climate change risk assessment. And cities reported over 3,000 individual actions designed to reduce emissions and adapt to a changing climate. CDP, C40 and AECOM salute the hard work and dedication of the world’s city governments in measuring and reporting these important pieces of data. With this report, we provide city governments the information and insights that we hope will assist their work in tackling climate change.
