Corporate Responsibility and the Environment
As corporations have got bigger and bigger, they have damaged the environment in different ways. The exploitation of the world’s resources through overmining, overfarming and overfishing is putting our future in doubt. As these shortages influence the market, corporations will have no option but to seek other ways of doing business. As marginal lands become deserts, fossil fuels run dry and fish stocks deplete, the necessity of a sustainable environment will become obvious. What we want is for companies to realise this obligation now, before it is too late.

Public Sector Procurement Practice and the Principles of External Economies, Clustering and the Global Value Chain

Thus, when an industry’s scope of operations expands due to, for example, the creation of a better transportation network, resulting in a subsequent decrease in costs for a company working within that industry, external economies of scale are said to have been achieved. With external ES, all firms within the industry will benefit.” (What Are Economies of Scale? By Reem Heakal, January 2003)
