I need an essay which will meet all the requirements in the document provided including all marking scheme. I chose Option 2.
The food we eat is
responsible for one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the
over consumption of ultra-processed food can lead to serious health conditions.
As this becomes clearer governmenzts are
considering measures to help people change diets to more sustainable and
healthier ones.
Evaluate
at least two measures that can be implemented to nudge consumers to more environmentally
sustainable diets.
Your
answer should include an analysis of the market failure of the food industry.
It should also include at least one diagram illustrating the market failure.
Your
conclusion should clearly answer the questions: What
are the advantages and disadvantage of the proposed measures?
In your answer you are required to refer to your
Anderton textbook and the following articles:
·
Would
food labels change the way we shop? (https://ig.ft.com/carbon-food-labelling/)
·
Cooling
our love affair with ultra-processed food may not be easy (https://channels.ft.com/en/foodrevolution/cooling-our-love-affair-with-ultra-processed-foods-may-not-be-easy/)
·
Is
the quest to eat healthy a route to enhancing consumer’s food security? (https://agricultureandfoodsecurity.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s40066-021-00340-7#:~:text=Three%20types%20of%20market%20failure,externalities%2C%20and%20positive%20production%20externalities.)

Sweet
truth – Is there market failure in sugar? (https://iea.org.uk/publications/research/sweet-truth-%E2%80%93-is-there-a-market-failure-in-sugar)
In the essay, you must
use the following three sources:
·
Your textbook Anderton 6 th edition Economics A/As level
·
At least two of the sources
the teacher recommended for each of the titles
·
At least one other academic
source
Additionally, you may
use other academic sources, broadsheets, and reputable data bases (we do encourage you to use
databases).
Remember:
Unacceptable sources (e.g., Wikipedia, Investopedia, Tutor2Tutor, blogs,
revision notes) will lose you marks for sources and research. If in doubt about
the quality of your sources, talk to you teacher.
