Nowadays obesity is one of the most widespread problems in the world, which can be solved, according to some human propositions, by establishing high prices on processing

foods

. I disagree with

this

suggestion and

this

essay will discuss the phenomena of obesity. The main reason which leads to appearing the above-mentioned problem is not only processing

foods

, but a non-healthy and sedentary lifestyle in general and following measures can probably settle

this

. The decrease in processing food consumption can be achieved through the prohibition of fast-food advertisements. That kind of advertising appears in movies, internet games, mobile apps, sports games, tabloids,

therefore

it can be seen in almost every crowded place. People, especially youth, can fall under the influence of that propaganda. If the government made the prohibition law for that kind of advertisement, the rise of usage of fast

foods

would stop. At the same time, as the

second

measure, governments can impose an excise tax on fattening

foods

This

measure perhaps may reduce the number of fast-food restaurants and, by decreasing the access to that kind of

foods

, can decline its consumption. It is

also

important to promote a healthy lifestyle, through open areas with different free sports facilities, introduce free courts for sporting games, organizing sporting events. Every person, in a different part of their life, may need access to convenient and inexpensive

foods

For instance

, students, individuals who come from other cities and others, who do not have time or opportunity to prepare meals. Taking into account, that increasing prices of processing

foods

might not bring the results,

can lead to mentioned inconvenience. According to the essay, several methods, which can help to solve the problem of human overweight do exist. In my opinion,

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

Summary
Restatement of thesis
Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

In conclusion
To conclude
To summarize
Finally
In a nutshell
In general
