In this lesson I cover:

Environmental concerns and ethical issues as both opportunities and constraints for businesses:

  • How business activity can impact on the environment, e.g. global warming
  • The concept of externalities: possible external costs and external benefits of business decisions
  • Sustainable development; how business activity can contribute to this
    How and why business might respond to environmental pressures and opportunities:
  • e.g. pressure groups
  • The role of legal controls over business activity affecting the environment, e.g. pollution controls
  • Ethical issues a business might face: conflicts between profits and ethics
  • How business might react and respond to ethical issues, e.g. child labour

I have included some key terms to remember for the exam.
Question at the end to help remember the main points of the lesson.
