Plese help m Read the following case and discuss how you would respond to the situation.
PROBLEM:

You have been assigned the position of Environmental Engineer for one of several local
robotics manufacturers whose water discharges flow into a lake in a flourishing tourist area.
Although all the robotics companies in the area are marginally profitable, they compete for
the same customers. Included in your responsibilities is the monitoring of water and air
discharges
at your plant and the periodic preparation of reports to be submitted to the Department of
Natural Resources. You have just prepared a report that indicates that the
level of pollution in the plant's water discharges slightly exceeds the legal limitations. Your
boss, the Plant Manager, says you should regard the excess as a mere
"technicality," and he asks you to "adjust" the data so that the plant appears to be in
compliance. He says that the slight excess is not going to endanger human or fish
life any more than if the plant were in compliance. On the other hand, he says, solving the
problem would require a very heavy investment in new equipment. He
explains, "We can't afford new equipment. It might even cost a few jobs. It will set us
behind our competitors. Besides the bad publicity we'd get, it might scare off
some of the tourist industry, making it worse for everybody."
