    Despite the growth of voluntary corporate social responsibility programs, the market for virtue is still limited.1 In the final analysis, sustainability is a public, not a private goal. Corporations are likely to become more sustainable not just because of the voluntary activity they undertake; governments by their actions and inactions are likely to affect this development. This puts a great burden on the world's governments and their regulatory systems as well as on business decision makers. Since governments have created many different kinds of regulation and utilize many
    different ways to regulate business impact on the natural environment, there are also many different ways in which corporations are able to respond to such regulation. Regulations shape the corporate environment and have a crucial effect on prices, factor costs, growth in demand, industry competitiveness, R&D progress, and the commercialization of new technologies. Many analysts have argued that without regulatory certainty, decision makers are unable to assess the risks and opportunities and make the trade-offs necessary for such investments.
