Problem
The world has seen significant changes from 2021-2022, and Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) requirements imposed upon corporations are at the center of the world's focus right now. Examples of current ESG issues can include: racial injustice, climate change, healthcare access and inequalities in healthcare outcomes, gender income gap, food insecurity, or refugees. You can also focus on another social justice issue, as this list is not meant to be exhaustive. Select a company (domestic or international) that will be the basis of your research. Research the company's most recent (2021) reporting on ESG initiatives and answer the following:
A. A brief (no more than two paragraph) summary of the business you selected and what the main focuses were in its ESG report.
B. From a legal perspective, incorporating concepts, laws, and regulations you have learned in this class, why would or should a company care about ESG issues?
C. Does a company's approach to ESG influence your purchasing decisions? Why or why not?
