Arbejdernes Landsbank's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Arbejdernes Landsbank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 552,583,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the majority of their carbon footprint. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 173,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 563,000 kg CO2e (market-based). The bank's emissions from business travel were around 268,000 kg CO2e, and purchased goods and services contributed approximately 12,177,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, the bank's total emissions were approximately 520,296,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 131,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions reaching approximately 593,000 kg CO2e (market-based). The trend indicates a substantial reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which highlights the bank's indirect impact through its value chain. Despite the detailed emissions reporting, Arbejdernes Landsbank has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. The bank's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting and climate commitments. Overall, while Arbejdernes Landsbank provides comprehensive emissions data, the lack of defined reduction targets underscores an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability.
