69 SECTION 4 SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT 2025 SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY OUR UNITED NATIONS SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ALIGNMENT The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (“UNSDGs”) are a set of 17 global goals adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015, aimed at ending poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring prosperity for all by 2030. Wasco is aligned with the SDGs and remains committed to supporting this framework to enhance our sustainable initiatives. We actively encourage our business partners and stakeholders to collaborate with us in advancing these goals. While our operations align with nine of the 17 goals, we have identified four priority SDGs where our sustainability strategy can create the most significant impact.
