Every pair of jeans requires a washing process in its production, but while creating the unique texture of denim, the washing process also generates a significant amount of wastewater pollution. Factory owners have three choices when it comes to wastewater treatment:

A: Environmentally-friendly wastewater treatment: investing funds in wastewater treatment processes to avoid polluting the environment, despite the additional costs.
B: Illegal discharge: polluting the environment, increasing legal risks, but saving costs and ensuring the factory's continuous operation.
C: Illegal bribery: investing some funds to reach a gray transaction agreement with the government, saving costs, and eliminating legal risks.

In this game, players will simulate running a jeans factory and face the classic 'trolley problem' dilemma: balancing commercial interests and social responsibility. Which choice will 'you' make?

每一條牛仔褲的生產都需要經過水洗處理,然而在創造牛仔褲獨特質感的同時,也產生了大量的廢水污染。為了處理廢水,工廠經營者有三種選擇:

A:環保排污,投入資金於廢水處理流程,產生了更多成本,但避免了污染環境。
B:非法排污,儘管會污染環境,增加法律風險,但節省了成本,保障了工廠的持續經營。
C:非法賄賂,投入部分資金與政府達成灰色交易,節省成本並免於法律風險。

在這個遊戲中,玩家將會模擬經營牛仔褲工廠,在這一經典的「電車難題」中作出抉擇。一邊是商業利益,一邊是社會責任,「你」會如何做出選擇?
