The web site, Engineering Business Ethics, offers a more technical perspective on the Gulf disaster. Good read.

Shel Horowitz at Principled Profit is on vacation until mid July. Hurry back, Shel!

Ethical Houston has a facebook page. Ethical Houston is a web site dealing with ethics from the Sojourners point of view. I want those of you with facebook pages to get to that site and “like” it. Good people and good sites need support. Let’s get our best effort out there!

Gael O’Brien writing in her blog, The Week in Ethics, discusses the concept of Conscious Capitalism. (Conscious Capitalism has its own web site.)

From her blog: Companies that practice conscious capitalism aspire to more than just turning profits; Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, the Container Store and Stonyfield Farms are examples of successful companies that have a higher purpose. Their definition of stakeholder reaches beyond those who benefit directly from the company, to larger social and environmental purposes affecting society.

Chris MacDonald praises a web site from South Africa and its discussion of ethic from a risk management standpoint. I have a reblog of that up on my site.
