Eastern Bank's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Eastern Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,418,300,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 505,300,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 257,030,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions, which encompass all other indirect emissions, amounted to 656,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions figures, Eastern Bank has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of a climate pledge or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that the bank may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As the financial sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, Eastern Bank's future commitments will be crucial in aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
