The Project Options;Option 1: Since the small island has been hurt by a downshift in tourism, we could help the economy by providing a one-time “tax” for the pollution. This would present an immediate Carbon Offset of $13,000,000. I know some of the senior members of the management would like to use this as a marketing tool and know the money could be used to help the local government fund items that were cut because of previous missed tax revenues from the lack of tourism to the island.
Option 2: The power plant could be shut down completely and we could install a power cable that runs from one of the other nearby islands that has a power plant. This power plant will still produce just as much pollution as the one on our island, but it is under a different government that does not care about air pollution. This would cost the cost our company $1,000,000 at the end of the year, $3,000,000 at the end of next year and $1,000,000 yearly thereafter for maintenance
