Downing's reported carbon emissions

In 2025, Downing reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,096,000 kg CO2e, comprising 68,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 and 2,091,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, Scope 1 emissions were recorded at 0 kg CO2e. The breakdown of Scope 3 emissions includes significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 1,383,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (approximately 326,000 kg CO2e). In 2024, Downing's total emissions were approximately 3,134,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 4,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 63,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 3,134,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions were primarily driven by purchased goods and services (approximately 2,628,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (around 329,000 kg CO2e). For 2023, the total emissions were approximately 2,300,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 6,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 80,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 2,300,000 kg CO2e. The major contributors to Scope 3 emissions included purchased goods and services (approximately 1,827,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (around 271,000 kg CO2e). Despite these emissions figures, Downing has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the figures reflect Downing's direct operational impact.
