First Bank's reported carbon emissions

First Bank, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for emissions in kg CO2e. Additionally, the bank has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges at this time. As a result, First Bank's climate commitments remain unclear, and there is no information regarding their strategies for addressing carbon emissions or contributing to climate action.
