2.1 UK government policy on the environment
One of the good choice is the UK government policy in the environment because the environment from the UK is very eco-friendly. In Myanmar, there is a lot of rubbish on the street and water is not clean enough. So, instead of Myanmar environment be UK environment. Moreover, there are some issue about greenhouse such as global warming, a company fined for illegally dumping waste, a drought or flood blamed on pollution, a health scare about car exhausts and smog in tropical countries.
There are 15 policies in the UK government on the environment. They are; 1. Marine Fisheries 2. Waste and recycling 3. Flooding and coastal change 4. Forests and woodland 5. Marine environment 6. Radioactive and nuclear substances and waste 7. Sustainable development 8. Business and the environment 9. Biodiversity and ecosystems 10. Water quality 11. Water and sewerage services 12. Energy efficiency in buildings 13. Farming industry regulation 14. Environment quality 15. Greenhouse gas emissions.
All of them, the best choosing is the water quality because not only human being but also animals and plant are using water.

Choose one of the three types of market failure and give a real world example of it. Do you believe the government has the ability to solve this problem?
Market failure is a failure when markets yield an inefficient output of resources leading to negative impacts on the society, nonrivalrousness in consumption and nonexclusiveness in use. Eg: the monopoly is an abuse of market power causing stagnation and idleness.

Throughout history governments and economists have always disagreed on free markets and command economies. In free markets prices are determined by unrestricted competition between privately owned businesses.
A monopoly market is defined as a market in which a single seller, selling a distinct product faces no competition; therefore, making the seller the sole seller of the good without any close substitutes (The Economic Times, 2017). Monopoly markets results in market power, in which the single seller has substantial influence on the market price. The outcome of one seller gaining market power often negatively impacts the economy as a whole. Moreover, when monopolies occur the government interferes for the sake of the economy. Over the years, the United States has faced numerous monopolies, and the government has had to create policies to ensure the protection of markets.
1A. Market failure is a situation in which the allocation of goods and services is not efficient. In any given market, the quantity of a product demanded by consumers does not equate to the quantity supplied by suppliers. This is a direct result of a lack of certain economically ideal factors, which prevents equilibrium.

Some people suggest that everyone between the ages of 18 and 21 should be required to perform one year of community or government service. Such service might include the Peace Corps, Environmental Conservancy Corps, a hospital, the military, a rural or inner-city school, or other community outreach projects. I believe forcing the service of any group of people is a bad idea. In this case, three reasons come to mind as to what makes this idea bad. First, I see this as a form of indentured servitude, even though the folks may earn a paycheck. Second, I feel that this idea takes away from the idea of the United States being a free place to live. And third, much like the idea
Market failure exists when the operation of a market does not lead to economic efficiency. It is a situation where a free market does not produce the best use of scarce resources. Typical examples are when externalities are present, when there is monopoly power or where it is necessary for public and merit goods to be provided by the government or even when there is possible excessive profits or
Under Ecological Sustainable Principles assessment in term of water quality, the assessment will use one operational principle which is precautionary principle. Precautionary principle means that any activity must have scientific evidence to support those actions or if the action has a potential harm effect to the environment, it is mandatory to take action regardless scientific proof (Kriebel et al. 2001). Water Urban Sensitive Design (WUSD) could be used to assess water quality as scientific evidence for precautionary principles. Best management practice for WUSD are divided into two groups first group is potable reduction, which has standard for water efficient appliances including fitting, the availability rain water tank, landscaping
-In any free market economy, the prices of goods and services are determined by the laws of supply and demand. In a marketplace that is heavily regulated by the government, this invisible hand can no longer work, because prices reflect political policy rather than the consumer’s choice.
When markets failure occurs, it will eventually affect economic recession, social unemployment rate to increase, financial deficits, and inflation and so on. In order to seek full employment, price stability, maintain economic growth and international revenue as well as expenditure in balance; government will launch a series of economic policies to intervene the market economy and to correct market failures. Government policy is a kind of coercive force which is a noticeable act that controlled by individuals and organizations' performance during the trade. Market failure exists when the competitive outcome of markets is not satisfactory from the point of view of society. What is satisfactory nearly always involves value
Numerous issues but primarily the environment fall under the jurisdiction of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). According to their website, the EPA was established on December 2, 1970 in order to consolidate several areas of government control concerned with protecting the environment. (n.d.) One of the major topics the EPA has addressed was the impact of the automobile industry on the environment. In the 1970’s several hearings occurred that called Automobile manufacturers to give an account to the measures they were taking to reduce pollution from the emissions given off by their products. The administrator of the EPA, William D. Ruckelshaus did this due to the Clean Air Act of 1970 (n.d.) The Clean Air Act required auto manufacturers
