Comparison of the benefits of increased wood production to the costs of deforestation:
The company is using the __environmental sustainability___ approach to make this ethical decision.
Explanation:
According to brittanica.com, environmental "sustainability is understood as a form of intergenerational ethics in which the environmental and economic actions taken by present persons do not diminish the opportunities of future persons to enjoy similar levels of wealth, utility, or welfare."
An approach to an ethical decision is sustainable when it considers the long-term benefits and costs associated with the decision, instead of concentrating on the short-term benefits as some business transactions are done. Short-termism selfishly considers the immediate gains from a transaction. It lacks a futuristic appetite for the good of future generations.
