Reference no: EM132290359

You are the CEO of a major oil company. Years ago, you drilled and produced oil in Ecuador, but the government eventually pushed you out in favor of domestic production. As you left, you agreed to properly clean up a number of drilling sites equivalent to your percentage of ownership, but not necessarily the ones you specifically operated. Once the cleanup was completed, the government granted you a complete release from any environmental claims. Now, many years later, you are being sued by some Ecuadorians over alleged health problems, including cancer, caused by spills and contaminants in the oil and water. There were few regulations on the manner of operations and drilling back in the day. As CEO, what would your response be in light of the specific ethical concepts?
