TPO-07 - Integrated Writing Task
In an effort to encourage ecologically sustainable forestry practices, an international organization started issuing certifications to wood companies that meet high ecological standards by conserving resources and recycling materials.
Companies that receive this certification can attract customers by advertising their products as ecocertified. Around the world, many wood companies have adopted new, ecologically friendly practices in order to receive ecocertification. However, it is unlikely that wood companies in the United States will do the same, for several reasons.
First, American consumers are exposed toso much advertising that they would not value or even pay attention to the ecocertification label. Because so many mediocre products are labeled 'new" or improved,'' American consumers do not place much trust in advertising claims in general.
Second, ecocertified wood will be more expensive than uncertified wood because in order to earn ecocertification, a wood company must pay to have its business examined by a certification agency. This additional cost gets passed on to consumers-American consumers tend to be strongly motivated by price, and therefore they are likely to choose cheaper uncertified wood products. Accordingly, American wood companies will prefer to keep their prices low rather than obtain ecocertification
Third, although some people claim that it always makes good business sense for American companies to keep up with the developments in the rest of the world, this argument is not convincing. Pursuing certification would make sense for American wood companies only if they marketed most of their products abroad. But that is not the case,American wood businesses sell most of their products in the United States, catering to a very large customer base that is satisfied with the merchandise.
The main idea of both the reading and the lecture are about issuing certification to wood companis. The reading states that unlike the other companies wood company in the United State will not adopt new, ecologically friendly practies so as to achieve eco-certification. The professor, on the contrary, refutes this poin of view by telling that tere are good reason that american companies seek for this eco-certification.
First of all, the author of reading asserts that American costumers do not trust in advertising claims and would not value or pay atttentin to the eco-certification label. The lecturer, on the other hand, refuses the author's point of view by arguing that Americal people do not treat to advertising in the same way, and moreover they can distinguishe between company advetrisement with independet agancy. Therefore, people feavorly react to this advertising with eco-certification.
secondly, the passage averts that eco-certificated wood will higher in price in comparison to uncertified wood; furthuremore, people influenced by price and would not by this product. The lecturer points out that the claim that peolpe would not buy high price products is true but how does this issue improtant and affect costumer. Moreover, he assets that this certfifcat will not change the price significantly and only 5 percent will increase. Therefore, costumer do choose some factors other than price to buy eco-certificated products. Due to the fact that these products are environmentally friendly peolpe will buy them.
eventually, the passage claims that this certificate will be good for american company which have some business in the rest of world; moreover, this change is not consiving for aerican copany not having market on abroad. The lecturer, on the contrary, asserts that this eco-cerfticatin is good for foriegn competition. Moreover, if american company have not this certificate they will slowly lose their costumers and foriegn company will come to america and will be succed in this field.
