Fifth Third Bancorp has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action within the financial services sector. The bank's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are independently reported. Overall, Fifth Third Bancorp's emissions profile highlights the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions, particularly in the context of business travel, as part of a broader strategy to mitigate climate impact.
