Scope and Method of Calculation

Excluding some of Dentsu Group companies

Based on the calculation standards of WRI (World Resources Institute) GHG Protocol

For CO₂ emissions, Categories 1, 5, 6, and 7 were calculated for Scope 3

The volume of waste generated (in kg) is the sum of general waste and industrial waste (including waste oil, waste plastic)

The volume of water resources used is the sum of municipal water and gray water at the Tokyo Head Office, and the municipal water used at the Kansai Branch Office and Chubu Branch Office.

For improved accuracy, the values of the previous fiscal years have been revised.

Third-party Assurance

The rate of women in leadership, the amount of donation, the number of volunteers, and the total hours of attendance of the volunteers, and CO₂ emissions (greenhouse gas emissions) from Dentsu group are verified by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance Ltd (LRQA)
