Peoples Bank's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Peoples Bancorp Inc.

Peoples Bank, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The bank is a current subsidiary of Peoples Bancorp Inc., which may influence its climate-related initiatives and commitments. Despite the lack of direct emissions data, Peoples Bank is part of a corporate family that is likely engaged in broader sustainability efforts. However, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges available at this time. This suggests that while the bank may be aware of the importance of addressing climate change, specific commitments or measurable targets have not been established or disclosed. As the financial sector increasingly prioritises sustainability, it is essential for Peoples Bank to develop and communicate clear climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with industry standards and expectations.
