This material addresses the question of the implementation of /the/ ecologically beneficial practices in the wood business in the US. The reading passage suggests that it is not feasible that American companies would follow these practices. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by arguing that there is no other route than to produce ecocertified production in this sphere of economy.
To begin with, the reading passage highlights that it is unlikely that national consumers would trust to the new marketing of ecologically safe products and buy those goods since they are not prone to believe to advertising in general. Meanwhile, the professor casts doubt on this and argues that American customers are able to differentiate false commercials from the true ones, and they would pay due attention to the fact that internationally recognized agencies would stand behind the certification of the new ecological products.
Additionally, the article posits that ecocertified wood would be more expensive and, therefore, would not be purchased by the customers. However, the professor advocates a different approach and provides the following details. Namely, she mentions that according to relevant studies the price affects consumers' behavior only if it is more than 5 per cent higher or lower as compared to the other similar production. In the case of the ecologically certified wood, the difference in the cost would not be more than the mentioned amount.
Finally, the author invites attention to the fact that American wood companies would not be afraid to be outcompeted from the business since their more advanced rival foreign companies have their own markets. This goes counter to the information in the listening passage, according to which, the entities from abroad might invade /into/ the American market suggesting to the local consumers favorable for them ecoproducts which are not produced by national businesses.
