Your power plant on Gilligan’s Island is producing too much air pollution. The professor gives you three choices for dealing with this problem: You can pay a pollution tax (Carbon Offsets) onetime of $13,000,000 immediately. You can close the plant and install a power cable from the mainland to the Island. That will cost you $1,000,000 at the end of this year, $3,000,000 at the end of next year and then $750,000 forever for maintenance. You can retrofit the plant with scrubbers to reduce the emissions to make the plant green. That will cost $7.5m at the end of this year and $100,000 for 50-years for maintenance.
