While companies pay a lot of attention on how to gain more profit, they usually do not care about if they will produce a large amount of pollution to damage the environment.  As far as I’m concerned, this action is not business ethics because they sacrifice the environment in order to make a big profit. The specific example about this case is what is happening in my hometown. We have a lot of industrial factories there. They do develop the local economics, making big money, but at the same time, the pollution they produced cannot be ignored. The air is not fresh anymore and the water we drink is not pure anymore. There are some rules been set up to reduce the pollution but some unethical companies do not follow these rules due to the temptation of profit. It is very important for the companies to obey these regulations because they are associated with the companies’ credits. The companies have their responsibilities to make profits but they are also responsible for the whole society. Therefore, they should concern about how to find a balance between profit and pollution.
