In Scenario 6, we need to research and make a list of the important jobs in three areas. We will need to research the businesses and types of careers. Additionally, we will make a list of essential jobs, important jobs and unimportant jobs, explain why some skills are more important than others and what we would say to people who had to leave, including telling them where to go.

Therefore, I believe the best option is for all three towns to share jobs and skills between them, so that everyone will have the best chance of surviving and rebuilding the world.
