“…Ethics is a major phenomenon that shapes our lives, not just because it affects our lives, but also affects those around us [55]. Given these facts, prior studies have investigated the impact of ethics on various aspects of life [56][57][58]. However, little has been executed on the relationship between ethics and green growth.…”

This paper examines the relationship between ethical behavior and green growth for a large sample of 109 countries, comprised of developed and developing countries. We applied panel corrected the standard error (PCSE) and system generalized moment of method (S-GMM) to achieve the set-aside objectives. We use the recent data from Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OCED). Our results show that high ethical behavior is associated with an increase in green growth, suggesting that the ethical standard plays a significant role in achieving sustainable development. We also find that the relationship between ethical behavior and green growth is more pronounced in developed countries than in developing countries. This is attributed to the ethical standard laid down in most of the developed countries. The results are unaffected by alternative variable measurements and econometric estimations. Our findings highlight the need for policymakers to consider non-economic and technological factors such as ethics to achieve growth that is both environmentally and economically sustainable.

Governments across the world have integrated a variety of advanced technologies to respond to the COVID-19 crisis. In particular, the use of surveillance programs that leverage data and tools from mobile phones have become important components of public health strategies to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2 across the globe. Currently, big technology companies around the world are helping governments evaluate the effectiveness of their social distancing protocols by examining and analyzing movements of millions of mobile phone users in order to determine how the virus is spreading across the various geographic locations, and the effectiveness of the various social distancing methods that have been implemented. The collection and use of individual mobile phone data as a public health surveillance tool presents tensions between several ethical priorities. Such a dilemma resides in the tensions between public health ethics goals and clinical ethics goals. While public health ethics pursues goals that seek to ensure the good of the community, such goals are often achieved at the expense of clinical ethics goals which emphasize individual autonomy and civil liberty. In using persons’ mobile phone data as a tool to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, we must address the tensions associated with weighing the needs of “the many” with ensuring the rights of the individual.
