Modern environmental activists point out that business -- especially big business -- is a main offender in terms of pollution and its impact on climate change. The green movement believes industry needs to redesign its production methods, goods and services to be more earth-friendly. Businesses argue that totally converting to new methods would be expensive, cut into profits, decrease production and likely result in unemployment for many of their workers. Technology enthusiasts counter that using technology and robots to take over many of the tasks, thus removing the human-error. While this will also result in unemployment increases, it will provide a faster return on investment than simply retooling. At the same time, they downplay the problems related to the safe operation, replacement, and recycling of the technology they wish to implement. Do businesses have an…arrow_forward

- There's an opinion that the board should compensate senior management for helping the firm achieve its goals. It is up to the board of directors to decide on annual incentives depending on the company's share price.

How much would you be willing to pay to be protected? Would you pay 5 percent? Maybe 10 percent? What about 30 percent: would you pay $1.30 for an item if $0.30 went towards cybersecurity protection? And what if you didn’st want the protection? Could you opt out and just pay $1.00? Some individuals are advocating that there should be a cybersecurity tax that is mandated by governments with all of the money being pooled together and then used to supply citizens with strong cybersecurity defenses, instead of asking users to find their own defenses and purchase them.

- Apply 5-steps of ethical decision making process to the below scenario. You have just completed a grueling 10-day business trip calling on two dozen accounts up and down the West Coast. There were even business meetings combined with social events late into the night and on the weekends. On the flight back home at the end of this marathon, you are tired and feeling as if you have not seen your family for a month. As you work on completing your expense report, you say to yourself, “The Company does not pay me enough for the work that I do than.” For more a few moments, you think about padding your expense report to make up for all the extra hours and time away from your family. Would it be okay to add “extra expenses” to compensate for the hardship of the trip?arrow_forwardThe topic of my argumentative essay will be over gun control and the affect firearms have over Americans. I believe that firearms should only be given to police officers, military, and those that are fully qualified with background checks. I believe that this will help reduce the amount of crime, school shootings, and gang violence among Americans, specifically the youth. This topic is very important, especially to us as college students because our school(s) being a public campus could bring the wrong attention. Although I don’t believe that guns should fully be banned in America, I do believe that guns do bring violence and cause us as Americans to not trust one another.
