You and your learning coach decide to attend a town meeting focused on whether or not to approve the building of a new shopping mall in an area of town that currently has natural wetlands. During the meeting, there is a specific time during which attendees brainstorm possible solutions to limit the negative environmental impacts of the shopping center and help protect the biodiversity of the area. Before the town council can decide whether to approve the building of a shopping mall, they must evaluate each suggested solution. You took the following notes about what each speaker said.

Reminder: Images may not appear correctly on a cell phone. You should take your assessments on an actual computer.

It seems that you want me to help organize the responses into a table that separates speakers' proposed solutions, along with their pros and cons. Since I can't view your original table or the specific notes you took, I can help you understand how to structure the information based on the solutions you've mentioned.

You can organize your table as follows:

| Speaker | Possible Solution | "Cons" for this Solution | "Pros" for this Solution | |---------|-----------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------| | Speaker 1 | Renovate an existing mall using recycled materials | (insert cons here) | (insert pros here) | | Speaker 2 | Build a smaller shopping center | (insert cons here) | (insert pros here) | | Speaker 3 | Refuse to grant a permit for construction or renovation of a mall | (insert cons here) | (insert pros here) | | Speaker 4 | Build the mall on an area already cleared but on the other side of town | (insert cons here) | (insert pros here) |

Next Steps:

  1. For each speaker, add their proposed solution in the second column.
  2. In the third column, note down any "cons" that were discussed for each solution.
  3. In the fourth column, list the "pros" mentioned for each solution.

This will help you clearly evaluate the different options discussed at the town meeting. If you provide specific pros and cons mentioned in your notes, I can help you fill them in as well!
