Answer to Question 1
Goods like clean air and street lighting are public goods. This means that individuals can consume these goods even without paying for them as they are non-rival and non-excludable. Such goods present particular problems for markets to provide because consumers have an incentive to act as free-riders; they can consume public goods even if they do not pay for them. Therefore, the problem with efficiently providing public goods is that consumers aren't willing to pay for them because no one can be excluded from consuming them once they are provided.
