In 2022, National Bank reported total carbon emissions of approximately 721,000 kg CO2e, a decrease from about 810,000 kg CO2e in 2021. The emissions breakdown for 2022 includes about 42,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and approximately 679,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This indicates a significant reduction in total emissions over the year, reflecting the bank's commitment to improving its environmental performance. Despite these reductions, there are currently no disclosed targets for further emissions reductions or specific climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the bank may not yet be addressing emissions from its value chain, which is a critical area for comprehensive climate action. Overall, National Bank's recent emissions data highlights a positive trend in reducing its carbon footprint, although further commitments and transparency regarding future targets would enhance its climate strategy.
