o Evaluate each main solution and its outcomes, likely impact, and the values upheld and violated by it. Compare the possible solutions to each other and weigh them.

o Are some possible consequences of some possible solutions more important than others? Why?

o Are some possible consequences of some possible solutions more likely to occur than others? Why?

o Does one solution uphold or violate certain values in more or less important ways than another? Why?
