Purpose of the paper
The major purpose to carry out this research study is to identify the impact which Australian economy is getting for levying down the regulations on the environments. Further, research question for this research project is as follows:
What are the impacts of Environmental Regulations on the Australian Economy?
The relevant theories
There are various theories related with this topic of report which support the project study and one major theory which this study emphasizes is theory of natural capitalism.
Research methodology
The entire process which is used for collecting information and data for the motive of making business decisions is termed as research methodology. This may include publication research, surveys, interviews and various other research techniques (Mackey, Alison and Susan 56). Along with that, it includes both present as well as historical information. Thus, in a brief manner research methodology for this project report has been explained below:
Research Philosophy
This section will help in applying the appropriate research philosophy to this report as whether to opt for positivism or interpretivism. However, the project emphasizes more upon the objectivity of the subject so positivism research philosophy will be applied for the present study (Taylor and et al 34).
Research approach
Any one of the two approaches such as inductive or deductive could be applied for the present investigation because using any of these approaches; researchers could carry out its study either in a general or in a specific manner (Hunleth 81). As this study goes form general data to more specific data, thus, deductive approach will be used by the investigator of this report.
Research design
It is considered as a blue print for the entire research project. Moreover, there are several types of research design such as descriptive, diagnostic, experimental and explanatory designs that could be applied by the researcher (Silverman 46). However, the study is leaner towards the theoretical part so descriptive research study will be applied.
Research technique
The author of this research will use both qualitative and quantitative techniques as the report contains both numerical as well as theoretical data (Khan 23).
Data collection method
The researcher will gather the data using both primary and secondary sources (Flick 7). For gathering primary data, author will use the observation method and for secondary data he will gather it from journals and nation’s report.
Data analysis
Analysis of data will be done using both statistical and thematic technique because in this report, researcher has gathered the data from both sources (Smith 16).
Ethical consideration
In order to carry out hassle free research with an appropriate method, it is essential for the author to take ethical consideration during the making of this report starting from scratch.
-
At the time of gathering data from primary sources, researcher should not pressurize any of the participants and if they agree then he must keep their personal information confidential (Geerts 142).
-
Furthermore, while taking data from secondary source, author should not do the copy pasting as this will lead to the serious crime of plagiarism.
Conclusion
From this proposal, it can be concluded that this research will aim towards the effects due to the environmental regulations on Australian Economy. Further, it will also help in revealing the positive as well as negative impact of these regulations put on for protecting environments.
