[THEMATIC REPORT]: Business and environment

by Meena Pandey | 19-03-2021 10:53


Business is all about production of the goods or selling of the good/commodities, provide services. with the main motive of incurring profit. It is the economic and social activity. It supports the society and cause the generation of the employment opportunities. Environment is the surrounding in which we live and comprises of biotic and abiotic components interacting with each other. Although it is challenging it is opportunity oriented. Business is inextricably connected with the environment and it is inseparable component of the environment. Environment is rich in resources needed for any type of the business that fosters economic growth of the people, society and eventually country.

Environmental component is used either rationally or haphazardly for the business purposes which imply for maintaining the status of the environmental component or its exhaustion. The environment where we carry the business also influences them. Business success refers to the closeness of the company to reach its goal. It is affected by both internal and external factors. External factor comprises environment. Business decision relies on the environmental condition

I want to simply talk on agriculture. For any agricultural enterprises, environment plays a vital role in the successful business. The physiological and biochemical features of the plant is highly influenced by the associated environment. Mesophyte plant maintains the water content in it by uptaking of water through the roots and transpire excess water in the environment by transpiration. If the amount of water it transpires exceed than the amount it take through the roots for more than short time interval, plants die. This is because it will have very less water available as reservoir for the transpiration in summer. Badly polluted air is responsible for the disfunctioning of the stomata and loss of the ability of the epidermal layer to regulate water loss whose direct effect is seen in photosynthesis, plant growth and development, process of carbon assimilation and ultimately results in reduced crop production.  Multinational companies like coca-cola, Unilever generates tremendous amount of wastes yearly. These companies have undeniable proof for the environment deterioration. Plastic waste generated for the purpose of production to the packaging adds heavy waste in the environment. The concerned authority should make apt steps immediately regarding this. Business is affected by different environmental factors. Heavy rainfall, hailstorm, tornado, flood lanslides, untimely rainfall, severe drought.

So, before running any business we should do preanalysis of the possible deterioration caused by the production process to the consumption process.
