Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming more prevalent in our global economy. The other night, a TV commercial informed viewers that a car company is operating a manufacturing plant that has achieved zero landfill status - nothing from its manufacturing efforts goes into a landfill. Going carbon-neutral is also gaining a lot of press. Several high tech companies are making a commitment to offsetting the carbon emissions they produce each year via their technology and/or employee commuting. They do this by supporting the planting of trees, investing in clean technologies, promoting the use of mass transit and car pooling or buying credits to offset the emissions from their business operations. Some organizations have also created foundations that are dedicated to promoting corporate social responsibility and philanthropy and are giving back to the community.
