Policy implications. There are a number of important policy implications involved with the proposed study, including the following:
1. An improved understanding of what compels consumers in the UK to pay a premium price for food products they perceive as being environmentally friendly.
2. An improved understanding concerning what green consumerism marketing methods are regarded as being effective when they are applied to food products, and why.
3. An improved understanding concerning what green consumerism marketing methods are regarded as being unethical when they are applied to food products, and why.
Taken together, consumers, government regulating agencies as well as companies which are competing in the food industry in the United Kingdom today and in the future stand to benefit in the above ways from the proposed study's findings using the life history research methodology.
