7. You are working in the environmental division of a computer manufacturing company.
You then learnt that your company might be discharging unlawful amounts of lead and
arsenic into the city sewage system. The city processes the sludge into a fertilizer used by
local farmers. To ensure safety, it imposes restrictive laws on the discharge of lead and
arsenic. Preliminary investigations convince you that the company should implement
stronger pollution controls, but your manager insists that the cost of implementing this is
prohibitive, and that technically the company is in compliance with the law.
Discuss the ethical issues involved and state what you should do. Give the reasons for
