No, I think it’s really hard for a business to be successful without affecting the environment. Most companies need things like energy, water, and raw materials, which usually cause some pollution or waste. For example, factories and transportation create a lot of pollution. Even if a business wants to be eco-friendly, it can be expensive to use green materials or processes, especially for small businesses. Fast fashion brands, for instance, make a lot of waste and pollution just to keep their prices low.

I think it’s possible, but only if the business really tries and invests in being eco-friendly. Some companies use renewable energy, recycle, or use green packaging to help the environment. These businesses can attract customers who care about sustainability, which helps them succeed. For example, some organic food brands or eco-friendly product companies are doing well. But it usually takes more planning and money than a normal business.

I think it depends on the type of business. For example, service businesses like IT or consulting don’t really use a lot of resources, so they don’t harm the environment much. But industries like mining or manufacturing almost always cause pollution and waste. Digital businesses can be more eco-friendly because they don’t need factories or a lot of materials. So, some businesses can be successful without hurting the environment, but others can’t.
