Analyse aspects of a contemporary geographic issue
You need to pick a current geographic issue that's still being actively debated (like climate change, urban sprawl, or resource management) and explain it from multiple angles. Your job is to show how different people's values and beliefs shape their response to the problem, then propose a solution and defend why it's better than other options.
You explain the issue, show how values lead to different responses, propose a solution, and justify it against at least one alternative.
You provide detailed explanations of how people's contrasting values shape their responses, propose a solution with detailed justification that clearly shows why it's better than alternatives.
You fully explain the relationship between values and responses with insight, propose a solution with sophisticated, in-depth justification that uses clear argument and shows you understand the issue holistically to demonstrate why your solution outweighs alternatives.
