Fannie Mae's reported carbon emissions

Fannie Mae, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges available at this time. As a significant player in the mortgage finance industry, Fannie Mae's climate commitments and initiatives are crucial for addressing climate change impacts within the sector. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is challenging to assess their current environmental performance or commitments.
