- See Scope 3 table above for detailed breakdown
- The boundary and methodologies used for Scope 3 emissions in the 2020 Sustainability Report are not comparable to those used within the 2021 Sustainability Report. Therefore, Downer has restated the figures presented in FY20. See Scope 3 emissions section for a breakdown.
