As cities grow denser, architects are converting unused warehouses and rooftops into controlled indoor farmsNoteLED lighting replaces sunlight in most indoor setups.. Crops grow in stacked trays under LED lights, using far less land than traditional fields. Water is recirculated through closed loops, so a single litre can support several harvest cycles before it is replaced.
Supporters argue that produce can reach supermarkets within hours, cutting transport emissions. Critics note that energy for lighting remains costly unless farms run on renewable power. Night-time tariffs and on-site solar arrays are now common experiments in Singapore, Tokyo, and parts of the Netherlands.
Several pilot projects now supply herbs and leafy greens to local restaurants year-round, regardless of outdoor climate. Operators also trial strawberries and dwarf tomatoes, though fruiting crops still demand more light than salad leaves. If electricity prices fall, analysts expect indoor farms to move from niche garnish supply into everyday vegetable retail.
Local councils have begun rewriting planning rules so that vacant industrial floors can be licensed as food production space. The shift is slow, yet it already changes how cities think about unused buildings, last-mile logistics, and the distance between a harvest and a plate.
Questions 14–16
Do the following statements agree with the information given in the text?
14. Vertical farms can operate inside former industrial buildings.
15. All vertical farms currently rely only on natural sunlight.
16. Some pilot farms deliver produce to nearby restaurants.
Questions 17–19
Choose the correct heading for each paragraph from the list of headings below.
i. Energy costs of indoor lighting
ii. Reduced transport distance
iii. Year-round restaurant supply
iv. Planning rules for vacant floors

Question
Task 2 prompt
Some people believe that governments should invest more money in renewable energy. Others think individuals should change their daily habits to protect the environment. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Write at least 250 words.
Your response
Highlights show collocation, grammar, and task-response notes
Some people argue that governments should invest more in renewable energy infrastructure because it reduces long-term pollution. Others believe households must change daily habits first.
Stronger collocation: try “scale up clean-energy capacity”.
In my view, public investment is essential. Private action helps, yet the grid do not shift without national policy. Cities that pair subsidies with building codes already cut household bills while lowering emissions.
Grammar: subject-verb agreement. Use “the grid does not”.
A second reason is reliability. If governments only lecture citizens, progress stays slow. Targeted funding for storage, heat pumps, and last-mile grids turns a slogan into a timetable that households can actually follow.
Task response: name one concrete programme, not only a list of nouns.
Of course, individual behaviour still matters. People can reduce waste, choose efficient appliances, and support cleaner transport. However, these choices work best when the energy system around them is already designed for low emissions. Without that foundation, personal effort alone cannot deliver the scale of change required.
In conclusion, while households should act responsibly, governments must lead with investment and regulation. A clear national plan, combined with everyday changes, is the most realistic path to a cleaner energy future.
Idea upgrades, grammar fixes, Band 9 vocabulary swaps, and a model sample — built from this essay.
Governments should invest more because renewable energy is important.
Governments should prioritise grid upgrades and storage so renewable power remains reliable when demand peaks.
Names a concrete mechanism (grid + storage) instead of a vague value statement.
People should change their daily habits to protect the environment.
Households can cut demand through efficient appliances and heat pumps, but only if policy makes those options affordable.
Links personal action to policy, which strengthens Task Response.
the grid do not shift→the grid does not shift
Singular subject needs does, not do.
If governments only lecture citizens, progress stays slow Targeted funding…→If governments only lecture citizens, progress stays slow. Targeted funding…
Split the run-on after “slow” to keep sentence control clear.
More precise for public policy writing.
Match the exact environmental claim you want to make.
Avoid repeating the question wording.
Stronger evaluative language for Band 7+.
Some people argue that governments should dedicate far more public funding to renewable energy, while others insist that individual lifestyle change is the real solution. In my view, both matter, but state investment must lead. Households can reduce demand by choosing efficient appliances, improving insulation, and cutting unnecessary travel. These habits help, yet they cannot redesign a national grid or make clean power cheaper than fossil alternatives on their own. Without affordable options, even well-intentioned citizens struggle to change. By contrast, governments can accelerate the transition at scale. Targeted spending on storage, heat pumps, and last-mile grids turns climate targets into a timetable. Cities that pair subsidies with building codes already show that policy can lower bills while cutting emissions. In conclusion, personal responsibility remains valuable, but only public investment and regulation can deliver the system-level change that daily habits alone cannot achieve.
