The Business Ethics provides several models and frameworks for a business approach to the environment and sustainability including;

accelerate and innovate

monetize and count

express corporate responsibility

Using the perspective of a business owner of a mid-size manufacturer, select the approach/approaches you would recommend for this company (mid-size manufacturer). Support the selection by explaining the approach, describing which of the five (5) environmental positions you espouse, and how the approach and positions relate to key ethical theories we have studied?

1. The environment shouldn't be protected.

2. The environment should be protected in the name of serving human welfare.

3. The environment should be protected in the name of serving future generations' welfare.

4. The environment should be protected in the name of serving animal welfare.

5. The environment should be protected for its own sake.

To answer the above question, the closest and which includes all human, animal and realted welfare is

"The environment should be protected in the name of serving future generations' welfare".

Explanation : when it comes to buisness, ethics and moral with code of conduct the ultimate reason behind this is to make the better world to serve future generation with all such discipline and carry forward the same positive approach towards all human, animal and other welfare's.

By this above option/approach is different and consider a cumulative welfare for better world to serve future generation.

Coming to other option/approach is only specific to certain groups only and it does'nt through light on other's welfare.

To add more, "when you focus on one group of welfare success will be there but if you focus and prioritize together with better competency and required area success path is wide and opened"

So saving and serving the environment to future generation is high valued and required. By this we can able to match the ethical, moral and social responsibality.
