Additional Information

Each of the six issues has links with the physical and human environment units. Careful consideration should be given to the two issues. For example, if you work in or around a potential case study for the tourism issue, then it may make sense to choose that issue. Some practitioners will have particular issues where they may have experience and this should, and could, encourage choice.
