Peoples Bank's reported carbon emissions

Peoples Bank, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. The bank has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges, which suggests a lack of formal commitments to reducing its carbon footprint at this time. It is important to note that Peoples Bank is a current subsidiary and may inherit emissions data and climate initiatives from its parent organisation. However, no specific details regarding such cascaded data or initiatives have been provided. In the context of the banking industry, many institutions are increasingly focusing on sustainability and climate commitments, often setting science-based targets to align with global climate goals. As of now, Peoples Bank has not publicly engaged in such initiatives, which may impact its competitive positioning in an industry that is progressively prioritising environmental responsibility.
