How are they incorporating social responsibility into their business plan? How are they incorporating environmental responsibility into their business plan? What role is technology playing in facilitating the efficiency of production? What role does education play in the ethics of these companies? How are their products and outreach programs providing solutions to problems that population growth and climate change create for our natural world? What role do you think ethics should play in business development and economic growth? (Be sure to define ethics and economic growth briefly.) Assignment Expectations You are provided with two references to complete this assignment. Include a References section that lists these and any additional sources you used (refer to the Background page). For any additional research you are required to do to complete your assignment, please use scholarly references such as a peer-reviewed journal article or a government-sponsored or university-sponsored website. As you read through your sources, take notes from your sources and then write your paper in your own words, describing what you have learned from your research. Direct quotes should be limited and must be designated by quotation marks. Paraphrased ideas must give credit to the original author, for example (Murray, 2014).

Each topic that you introduce in this Introductory paragraph should correspond with a paragraph in the body that addresses it. Include a Conclusion paragraph that summarizes your discussion of the topics. This article is your only required reference and should still be reported in a Reference section.

Body: One paragraph each for topics 1–6 Conclusion: Address Topic 7 and whether or not you think these companies align with your opinions of ethics, business development, and economic growth. References: Be sure to list all references and cite them throughout your work.
