They--the powers that be-- say it would create new jobs and new investment opportunities and so benefit Tasmania greatly:

pulp mill, air pollution
There is no need to worry about the air pollution in the Tamar Valley says Gunns. It's all under control says the Lennon Government. What matters is the one, giant industrial project that will secure Tasmania's future, and so put paid to an eternally recurring history of conflict over the environmental consequences of these kind of resource developments. Pulp mills are the future.
It's a cargo cult mentality isn't it, especially when we remember this aspect of Tasmania-- a natural advantage.
