What is the future of carrotmobs? (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

Nowadays, there are different ways of expressing public opinion. Signing petitions, flashmobing, writing letters to the government - those are known to everybody. However, these types of protests are becoming old-fashioned, people are no longer as impressed by them as they used to be, that's why their effectiveness decreases. But human creativity is endless, and more and more kinds of protests are appearing. One of them is called “carrotmob”. 

According to Macmillan dictionary, carrotmob is an event in which a large group of people gather at an environmentally-friendly shop or business and demonstrate support for it by buying products. First, organizers make and agreement with a business, then carrotmobers spend money at the business and the business makes an improvement. 

As I have already said, this type of protest is quite new: the first campaign was held in 2008.

But what is the future of carrotmobs? Is this idea going to develop or fail? In my opinion, carrotmobs will become much more popular in the future, whereas conventional flashmobs and petition signing may eventually disappear. 

Firstly, carrotmobs provide an opportunity for small businesses to develop. In the modern world it is a topic of interest, as there are plenty of businesses in need of financial or other kinds of help.

Secondly, campaigns like carrotmobs are a way to kill to birds with one stone, as it allows to simultaneously help developing businesses and environment. At carrotmob events people show their support for environmentally-friendly stores (or businesses). Both business and environment are in the center of attention today. 

Thirdly, carrotmobs are not difficult to take part in. Simplicity is likely to attract more people, and, therefore, the campaign is going to be more successful. I'm not speaking about the organizers of a carrotmob, but for the participants it involves only going to a store and spending a reasonable amount of money. 

Speaking about the organization of a carrotmob, there are some difficulties with it. Arranging such campaign with a store can be really complicated, that's why carrotmobs may not become the most popular way of public events. On the other hand, there are no events that include gathering many people that are easy to organize. 

Opinions differ, and it is simply my point of view that carrotmobs will be the most popular way of protesting in the future. It goes without saying, there are both pros and cons of carrotmobs, but, in this case, I reckon that advantages are more convincing then disadvantages.
