The 2030 goals for sustainable development, adopted by United Nations member states in 2015, provide a course of action toward a common future of peace and prosperity. The shared objectives are encompassed in 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Source: https://sdgs.un.org/goals 

Given the crucial role that the private sector is expected to play in achieving the SDGs by 2030, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues are recognized as the three fundamental principles of corporate sustainability.

Regarding ESG, environmental criteria involve commitments to reduce energy and natural resource consumption, carbon emissions, and other forms of waste, as well as addressing the business's position on climate change and its impact on people and wildlife.

Social criteria under ESG encompass the organizational structure of the business, the corporate structure, and social impact; the level of civil participation; workforce health and quality of life; diversity, equality, and inclusivity efforts.

Governance criteria under ESG pertain to the enterprise's policies regarding shareholders and board of directors operations, working procedures, accountability, legal and regulatory compliance, supply chain diversity, and other external stakeholder relationships.
