Bank of America's new 10-year, $50 billion environmental business goal to help address climate change, reduce demands on natural resources and advance lower-carbon economic solutions is underway. The company also introduced significant new goals to reduce the environmental impact of its own operations.
The new goal follows the anticipated completion of the company’s current 10-year, $20 billion environmental business initiative – a program that is more than four years ahead of schedule.
