Business and Environmental Protection

Correct answer: A. ऐसा व्यापार जो लंबे समय तक चले और संसाधनों का जिम्मेदार उपयोग करे

A sustainable business aims to continue over the long term while using financial, human, and natural resources responsibly. It considers future needs instead of seeking only immediate profit. Efficient resource use and responsible practices can support both business continuity and wider welfare. Closing immediately, wasting resources, or avoiding customers contradicts sustainability.

Correct answer: A. Running an enterprise that can last economically, socially, and environmentally

Business sustainability means creating value and continuing operations over the long term while balancing economic viability with social responsibility and environmental care. It may involve efficient resource use, fair treatment, safe products, and attention to future effects. Focusing only on immediate profit or wasting resources can weaken future performance, so option A is the correct broad meaning.

Correct answer: A. Using resources responsibly

A sustainable business tries to remain viable over time while reducing unnecessary environmental and social harm. Responsible use of energy, materials, water, and other resources can reduce waste and support long-term efficiency. Wasting resources, making false promises, or ignoring rules damages trust and sustainability, so A is correct.

Correct answer: A. It is an unethical and unsustainable business decision

Reducing costs by polluting or damaging natural resources shifts the burden of business activity onto society and future generations. It conflicts with ethical responsibility and may also lead to penalties, clean-up costs, loss of reputation, and declining customer trust. A responsible entrepreneur seeks efficient methods that reduce waste without violating environmental standards. Therefore, environmental harm may create a short-term saving but is not a responsible or sustainable business strategy.

Correct answer: A. When the decision considers profit, society, and environment together

A sustainable business decision considers economic viability along with social and environmental effects over the longer term. Profit is necessary for continuity, but ignoring people, resources, or environmental damage can create future costs and harm. Seeking quick profit alone, increasing waste, or avoiding rules does not represent responsible sustainability. Hence A is correct.

Correct answer: A. अपशिष्ट घटाना और पुन: उपयोग योग्य सामग्री अपनाना

Reducing waste and choosing reusable materials lowers the amount of refuse and can conserve resources. Responsible enterprises also monitor pollution and use energy carefully. Dumping waste, wasting electricity and ignoring harmful emissions create environmental damage, so they represent the opposite of responsible business behaviour.

Correct answer: A. जो लाभ के साथ समाज और पर्यावरण का ध्यान रखे

A sustainable enterprise seeks to remain viable over the long term while considering financial performance, social effects, environmental impact and stakeholder safety. It does not treat quick profit as the only goal or use resources carelessly. Sustainability requires responsible practices that support the business and reduce avoidable harm to people and the environment.

Correct answer: A. Because business should be responsible toward both society and nature

Sustainable entrepreneurship considers the long-term effects of business activity on natural resources, people, and future operations. Reducing waste, using resources responsibly, and limiting pollution can protect society and help preserve the conditions on which businesses depend. Sustainability does not mean ignoring financial viability; it seeks a responsible balance among economic, social, and environmental concerns. Hence, option A is correct.

Correct answer: A. Social objective

The governing concept is that business objectives include economic, personal and social responsibilities. When a factory adopts cleaner technology to reduce pollution, it is protecting the environment and reducing the harmful effect of production on society. Therefore, option A is correct because environmental protection is a social objective and responsibility of business. Option B is unsuitable because a personal objective concerns employee welfare, security or satisfaction. Options C and D are also unrelated: dividend distribution concerns returns to owners, while attendance concerns employee presence and not environmental performance. The action may also improve the firm’s reputation and long-term sustainability, but its immediate classification is social objective.
