Question
Justify the following statement.
Social responsibility is necessary for the protection of the environment.
Solution
Business organizations should make proper use of the country's natural resources. They should avoid environmental degradation such as contamination of water resources, depletion of the ozone layer, etc. which have been caused by business activities. These have resulted in poor health of the community and placed a question mark on the survival of the human species. Businesses should be committed to protecting and promoting the environment. Business uses all types of resources from nature, so it is an obligation to protect the environment. It should not create an imbalance in nature. Industrialization results in environmental pollution by generating hazardous waste and has increased the risks to the environment. Protection of the environment benefits businesses from many angles such as creating awareness among customers, and employees, saving costs, lass, govt. control etc. A number of waste prevention techniques are available and they are commonly summarised as the so-called 4 'R's. i.e. reduction, reuse, recycling, and recovery.
