Scope 3 emissions were significant, with business travel contributing about 38,426,000 kg CO2e, employee commute at approximately 56,028,000 kg CO2e, downstream leased assets at about 21,203,000 kg CO2e, and waste generated in operations at around 18,293,000 kg CO2e. In comparison, the previous year, 2022, Bancorp's total emissions in the US were about 156,194,000 kg CO2e, indicating an increase in emissions in 2023. The breakdown for 2022 included Scope 1 emissions of approximately 38,206,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of about 9,902,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions comprising business travel (approximately 23,206,000 kg CO2e), employee commute (about 55,642,000 kg CO2e), downstream leased assets (approximately 22,912,000 kg CO2e), and waste generated in operations (around 6,326,000 kg CO2e). Bancorp has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, and there are no documented SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets. The organisation's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that it operates independently in its reporting and climate strategy. Overall, while Bancorp has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate strategy.
