BCR's reported carbon emissions

BCR, headquartered in Costa Rica (CR), currently does not have available data on carbon emissions, as no specific emissions figures have been provided. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This lack of data suggests that BCR may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or may be working on developing a strategy to address carbon emissions in line with industry standards. As the global focus on sustainability intensifies, it will be crucial for BCR to establish clear targets and initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint and contribute to climate action.
