Now you will complete your project by further exploring your topic and its impacts on society and finalizing your arguments and supporting research. Specifically:

3. Consider and discuss the social responsibility of organizations.
4. Examine issues such as worker rights, whistleblower protection, economic impacts, and environmental protection.
