In today’s society, big corporations and companies heavily influence the lives of the majority of people on the planet via their products and services, which often generate them a prodigious affluence with which to continue growing their business. It may seem that because of all the opulence these companies have that they should try to use some of this money and influence to give back to the community; however, the corporations are not directly responsible for how society acts, but rather the people who control these organizations. Therefore, these corporations’ main responsibility should be to make as much money as possible in order to allow for external philanthropic efforts.
Investment is a major part of many people’s lives, as it allows them to grow their money over the span of some years. Most people who partake in investing for this very reason will buy stocks from corporations that they believe will grow, which will in turn increase their very own net worth. Particularly opulent and magnanimous individuals will often times liquidate the stocks they have to be donated to various charities and nonprofit organizations worldwide. One example of such a situation is Priscilla Chen and Mark Zuckerberg’s company “The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative”, which has been endowed a billion dollars of Facebook shares annually since its founding for the purpose of increasing the betterment of human living conditions and lifestyles in various areas of need. For this reason along with other various examples, the corporations indirectly funding these operations should only focus on making money so that its shareholders can give away their stocks as largesse.
Corporations are also helping society more than just through indirectly providing stocks for the generous; they provide new jobs and opportunities for those who are seeking employment. This increase in demand for employment allows for people in various difficult circumstances and from different backgrounds to provide for themselves and their families while helping these corporations continue building their money. Had these companies not built their money, they wouldn’t have as many chances to give people new jobs, which would in turn leave more people unemployed and in need of financial aid. Therefore, corporations are already doing a great service by building their money and allowing more people to work for them.
On the other hand however, corporations are mostly the ones making and selling the products that are in need, and people will argue that because of this corporations have a liability to give some of their products away as charity. However, by doing this, corporations will lose money, and in turn not be able to create as much of their product as possible. This drawback does not need to be considered however, because often times, charities will use the money donated to them to buy said products from these corporations to further their altruistic operations, which in turn allows for corporations to continue making their products without worrying about losing money. As a result, corporations need not sacrifice their net worth for the sake of benevolence, but rather continue to make more money in order to make and sell even more of these products that will go to the less fortunate.
In conclusion, although corporations often make the products needed to promote society’s wellbeing, they are not responsible for anything more than selling their goods and making as much money as they can, because it is through these actions that the corporations themselves indirectly help society through the actions of generous people in power. In fact, acts like these from individuals rather than corporations can potentially invigorate other more “normal” members of society to give to the common cause through their own money and efforts, creating a stronger sense of community and hope for the future.

It has been said that our responsibilities are ours. These(societies and environments) are the main parts of life of human beings. I believe it is the corporation's responsibility to undertake the well-being of society and environment. Human and vegetation are an important part of society and environment. If people are secure and green-vegetation is preserved it would lead a prosperous life to the upcoming generation. I totally agree, either private or public associations should come forward to participate to build the new future of the human community.
Firstly, humans are dependent on society to full-fill their needs. There are numerous sectors where people work. Both society and nature are the one where humans feel safe and protected. For instance, there are thousands of people working in private technologies assisting and promoting them, so this should be the fundamental rights of employees to be taken care of by these corporations. Only 45 to 50% employees working in high paying IT sectors are more secure than employees working in small institutions. However, it also depends on each individual whether they contribute back to society or are only greedy about earning from private companies.
Secondly, the environment is also one of the major dependencies of human beings. It has been degraded rapidly by us. Conservation and protection department should be involved and contribute to the future of society. For example, urban areas are developed but parents and their children lack amusing areas such as parks, gym, gardens and kids playing instruments. These also play a major role to increase the people's attention towards the conservation of environments. Furthermore, we have known that society is part of our life which cannot be completed without taking responsibility for it.
To conclude, human life is more crucial to address the well-being of society and environment but it does not mean that we should avoid the society laws. Corporations should not only suggest people to follow the regulations and earn without taking care of society and environments. Thus, a stable society has a better future.
