The above are links to articles concerning ethical consumerism and ethical businesses....Think of the Triple 'P' bottomline I mentioned before : Profit-People-Planet.

When it comes to saving Mother Nature, there are four parties involved, each with its role to play; and we see how they have come into the picture during the recent haze crisis.... : The Govt, the consumers, the businesses, the NGOs

Qns:
1) Should profit be the sole objective when it comes to doing business?
2) 'Consumers are at the mercy of corporations.' Discuss. (DHS Prelim 2015)
3) Discuss the view that it is increasingly difficult to engage in ethical business practices. (CJC Prelim 2015)
