Stuck between 2 ideas!

Hi! I need to submit my EPQ form early this week, i have really struggled to decide between my ideas and pick one, i have eventually narrowed it down to two ideas from about 15 lol but i really can't decide which would be better. I don't know what i want to do in the future so either could help in that respect and i am really interested in both!
In short, the two ideas are: one about UPF's and the impact on our health/ethics of big companies exploiting their addictiveness
and: how variations in animal sensory perception can show that reality and time is a species-specific construct.

If anyone has any ideas/advice that would be great, thank you!



Adding this incase i cut something that would be really good, some of the ideas i cut are (includes some similar to my final 2):


"Exploring Problem-Solving Skills in Corvids: A Study of Crows and Ravens"


"Evaluating the Effectiveness of the Eatwell Guide in Promoting Public Health"


"How significant is the role of mycorrhizal networks in the distribution of resources within a plant community?


"Herbs and Supplements vs. Conventional Medications: A Comparative Study of Efficacy and Safety


"How does the brains interpretation of sensory data, alter the 'true' nature of reality?"


To what extent do variations in animal sensory perception demonstrate that 'reality' is a species-specific construct?


How do the differing sensory inputs of predatory and prey animals, affect their perceived reality?


To what extent are companies that create addictive food products ethically responsible for the health consequences of their products


What are the ethical implications of corporate practices that prioritize profit over public health in the production and marketing of UPFs and GM foods? and should the brands be punished/taxed/restricted


"The Mechanics and Ethics of Reviving Extinct Species: A Scientific Exploration"


"Ecological and Ethical Considerations of Rewilding Efforts in the UK"

Hi @Emma0354

When deciding on my final idea for my EPQ, I made a list for each of my titles with all of the things that I would include if I chose that title. This helped me to see which one I had more ideas for and also which one I was more interested in. If you have time, you could also start to do a little bit of research into both to see which one you prefer.

Hope that helps!
