Summary Introduction

Case summary:

Lead is a toxic metal which in this case is discussed with respect to exporting the used batteries in Country MO. Higher exposure to lead contents will affect the adult and will affect the children even more. The environmental protection agency in Country US has proposed strict regulations to limit the pollution caused by lead.

The importing of used batteries from Country MO is a good business. But, the laws are considerably weak compared to the standards in Country UA. Some companies have their recycling plants in Country MO stating that they are following strict regulations of Country UA and not the standards present in Country MO.

To explain: If it is realistic to expect ethical guidelines to be established evenly in all industries across all countries and if ethical guidelines of one person can be similar to the ethics of another person.
