The purpose of this report is to present a social responsibility proposal for Johnson Controls that will focus on environmental considerations, sustainable business practices, ethical decision making by leadership, and compliance with all government laws and regulations. A1. Environmental Considerations and Recommendations: Environmental considerations involve how Johnson Controls impacts the environment and the size of the company’s carbon footprint left behind. When fossil fuels are burned, carbon dioxide and methane
Assignment 2: British Petroleum (PLC) and John Browne: A Culture of Risk Beyond Petroleum Tonesha Gadson Strayer University Project Risk Management (BUS 519) Dr. Hammad Elbedour February 1st, 2013 Two-Day Workshop Agenda for British Petroleum In observing this case per the BUS 519 Project Risk Management case pack, it is ascertained that British Petroleum (BP) is in neediness of a total company alteration. The primary purpose of the project of BP is to create and to make available a tactical strategy to re-establish the tarnished character of BP Oil Company. If proven to be effective, BP would be known (or viewed) as an accountable and trustworthy leader in the discovery and production of oil worldwide and through the manufacturing of oil products including the chemical by-products for other industries in the oil market. This conviction of support calls for restoration with government agencies in which BP has a positive existence on operations. For example, the United States and the state of Texas have a treaty, where Texas-based oil refineries are situated and/or the off-shore drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico are present.
According to Dictionary.com the definition for sustainability is as follows: the ability to be sustained, supported, upheld, or confirmed. The environmental science definition is, the quality of not being harmful to the environment or depleting natural resources, and thereby supporting long-term ecological balance. What do scientists predict will happen in Earth’s future if we do not increase our sustainability practices? The Earth’s climate is complex and always changing. As the polar ice caps melt and the globe warms everything as we know it will change.
B) Greenhouse gases prevent heat from leaving the earth. C) If the level of greenhouse gases increases, the temperature will decrease. D) Some greenhouses gases are needed to keep the proper temperature balance. E) none of the above 3) Which of the following is TRUE? A) Stoichiometry allows prediction of the amounts of products that form in a chemical reaction based on the amounts of reactants.
1). Four main regulatory compliance approaches arise when talking about confined spaces: the risk-based approach, the control-and-command approach, the oxygen deficiency approach, and countries that regulate it loosely or not at all (Enhesa, 2011). This particular scenario involves the risk-based approach and also the control-and-command approach, basically putting the responsibility on the employer and not the employee (Medical News Today, 2011). NewCorp should apologize to Paul and place him in a environmentally safe area as well as taking the control-and-command regulatory approach. This approach forces NewCorp to focus on the safety of the
Fully simplify the expression, tanx1+ tan2x . Use the knowledge that sin x= -35 and π2≤x ≤ 3π2 to express your simplified expression as an exact answer in fraction form. 4 Heat loss from electric hot water systems is an environmental issue. It is recognised that the heat loss from a closed, full hot water tank is proportional to the surface area of the tank. Determine the ratio of the heat loss from a 1m3 cylindrical tank of optimum dimensions (that is, the dimensions of the cylindrical tank for which the heat loss is a minimum) to the heat loss from a cubic tank with the same volume.
Case Study: Sustainability: Ethical and Social Responsibilities and Dimensions Cynthia Xiong MGT 400 National University Sustainability: Ethical and Social Responsibility Dimensions Essential Facts This article addresses the subject of sustainability and details some of the major problems the world faces today, which includes: air pollution, global warming, water pollution, water quality, waste management, deforestation, urban sprawl, and biodiversity. Part of running an ethical business is being socially responsible and making decisions that impact the natural environment. “The protection of air, water, land, biodiversity, and renewable natural resources emerged as a major issue in the twentieth century in the face of increasing evidence that mankind was putting pressure on the long-term sustainability of these resources” (Ferrell, 2011, p. A-2). Beginning in the 1970s, governments around the world imposed environmental protection laws. Since then, many companies have progressively integrated policies that promote sustainability into their business strategies “partly in response to federal legislation and partly due to stakeholder concerns” (Ferrell, 2011, p. A-8).
EVSP502 Article 1, Week 2 Ecological Economics Volume 69, Issue 7, 15 May 2010, Pages 1368-1372 Bridging theories on environmental governance Insights from free-market approaches and institutional ecological economics perspectives By: Lenka Slavíková, Tatiana Kluvánková-Oravská, Jiřina Jílková This paper discusses the differences and similarities between two approaches to environmental protection. The first approach is the free market, and the second is institutional. Both approaches attempt to find an answer to why there is a continual degradation of nature and what we can do about it. The Institutional approach is all about the interactions of society and government with the environment. It asks important questions such as how we as a society can correct our excesses and deficiencies with regard to protecting the environment.
2008). The crucial point of deontology is that the right action is taken and the goal of the moral behavior is performed. Since humans have contributed so much to the global warming problem it is only right to help decrease the problem. When considering global warming and human responsibility from a deontological view it would only be right to apply the deontological categorical imperative which would see the issue of human’s responsibility in helping to decrease global warming as a requirement or demand that has no
