updated about 7 years ago by Martin Adamson

Page 42 of the Sustainable development report states that the company sources 33% of the water it uses from groundwater.

 

Given that the total water used in 2015 was 397,090,025 kL (p90-91), 33% gives an amount of 131,039,707 kL.

Figure given on page 92 is in kilolitres. Are the two measures, cubic meters and kilolitres equivalent? State if this is the case.
