Nowadays, retailers make a commitment to support ethical retailing and sustainable supply but faces with many challenges to offer sustainable products and services.

In this assignment, you should provide a critical reflection on the effort of your selected retail company for the CW1 regarding their ethical and sustainability performance. To do this, you will need to choose ONE of the ‘Triple Bottom Lines’, which are:

Social sustainability: child labour, poverty and disease, fair payments, CSR practice;
Environmental Sustainability: CO2, global warming, pollution, disposal of waste, etc.; or
Economical sustainability: sustainable growth, cost saving, CSR for cultural and societal development.

Essay Planning Guidelines:

Paragraph 1 – Introduction

Your first paragraph should:

Be a general introduction. Do not include specific points from the main body of the argument
Include a response to the title. You may need to identify the issues that lie behind the title, to give historical or topical background
be interesting and relevant

Paragraph 2 – Background

Provide some history of the topic you are writing about.

Paragraph 3 – Your argument (at least 6/7 reasons, thus 6/7 paragraphs)

These paragraphs must:

Contain one major point of the argument, stating your reason for agreeing/disagreeing with question posed.
Begin with or have near its start a topic (or “signpost”) sentence (a sentence, which indicates what the paragraph will be about and how it relates to the essay title). This is NOT a sub-heading! Your writing should be a formal continuous prose.
Be linked to the paragraph that comes before, often with a suitable conjunction or link words such as in addition, nevertheless, despite this, however. Do not put also or for example at the start of a sentence.
Contain generalised evidence of your research (e.g. statistics/expert opinion).

2^nd Last Paragraph – Counter argument (1 paragraph)

Open with “Contrary to this…” “In contrast there are those who...” “On the other hand…”
List the opposing side’s reasons but do not change your opinion. Use phrases like: some people claim… There are those who say…

Conclusion

A good conclusion MAY:

return to something mentioned in the first paragraph
evaluate what has gone before
hint at something you might have followed up had the scope of the question allowed it
Give your opinion. A discursive essay should feel as if you have weighed up the arguments and come to a conclusion at the end.

A poor conclusion will simply restate or summarise points made earlier or be a few sentences stuck on at the end.

In addition, in terms of “structure and layout”, please make sure that you will follow the below criteria:

Logical sequence (introduction main body, and conclusion)
Clarity of structure, appropriateness of structure
Clarity of objectives (thesis statement)
Clarity of expression
Clear line of argument-debate
Paragraphs linked together and not fragmented
Written in third person
Double spacing
12 point font of Times News Roman or Times
Accurate and complete Harvard Referencing Style
Spelling and Grammar Checks
Inclusion of a source citations and full reference list
Adherence to word count
