The Scope 3 emissions also saw a decrease from approximately 48,800,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Rabobank has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. However, the bank is actively engaged in monitoring and reporting its emissions across all relevant scopes, indicating a commitment to transparency in its climate impact. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while Rabobank is aware of its emissions profile, it may still be in the process of establishing concrete goals for future reductions. Overall, Rabobank's emissions data reflects its ongoing efforts to understand and manage its carbon footprint, particularly in the context of its significant Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of its total emissions.
