Banktrack's reported carbon emissions
As of 2021, Banktrack reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 287,900,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 45,600,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 83,800,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions included substantial contributions from purchased goods and services (approximately 102,600,000,000 kg CO2e) and waste generated in operations (about 30,900,000,000 kg CO2e). In previous years, emissions showed a notable decline from 2016, where total emissions were approximately 37,357,000 kg CO2e, to 2018, with total emissions around 26,983,000 kg CO2e. This trend indicates a commitment to reducing carbon footprints over time. However, Banktrack currently does not have specific reduction targets or initiatives documented, nor do they appear to have made a climate pledge. This lack of formal commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in setting and achieving ambitious climate goals.
