## CSR Activities Related to the Environment 

## Basic Policy 

Astellas understands that maintaining a healthy global environment is an essential theme for building a sustainable society and is also an important element in maintaining sound business activities. 

In addition to complying with legal regulations covering various environmental issues, Astellas must fulfill its corpo- rate social responsibilities in order to sustainably grow. If Astellas cannot meet its responsibilities, its corporate value could be damaged due to a loss of social trust. 

Going forward, Astellas will formulate its vision for being a responsible corporation based on a long-term global perspective that keeps future generations in mind. At the same time, we will continue efforts to address regional social issues and pursue corporate activities in harmony with the global environment.
