• Nuclear power is GHG-free electricity 24/7
• Accepting nuclear power from PG&E would save PCE several million dollars
• That money saved could be used to fund innovative energy-saving and GHG
  reduction projects that would help PCE’s customers transition away from
  gas and to electricity
• Those innovative projects could also create more jobs in San Mateo County

FOUR NEGATIVES:

• Nuclear power is not safe, not renewable, not carbon-free and not clean
• At the time PCE was founded, it was understood by community advocates
  and local officials that PCE would not use nuclear energy to power our
  county
• Adding nuclear energy to PCE’s power mix is controversial and would
  damage PCE’s reputation in our customer base
• PG&E’s nuclear offer is not “free” — it would be provided to PCE at the
  price of fossil fuel energy on the California energy market

• Proximity to labour: industrial parks are often built near a specialized labour force. They are generally located on the outskirts of urban centres, while also accessible by public transportation networks
• Existing infrastructure: with many industries gathered in a small area, park owners need to make sure they provide reliable access to all resources required for industrial operations. Water, gas, and electricity supply are usually not a problem, as infrastructure is designed to meet a high demand in both energy and resources. Sewage systems will also be suitable for treating high-volume wastewater
• Strategic location: many industrial parks are located between multiple major urban centres or near an international border. This strategic location could quickly increase your pool of potential consumers
• Relationship with park owners: depending on park management, industries choosing to settle there may encounter a range of advantages. Many can offer lower prices than in urban areas. Others provide financing options for construction, like waiving municipal taxes for the first five years of operation on the land. Plus, most park owners offer specialized support to help companies secure building permits and industrial licences

FOUR NEGATIVES:

• Pollution island: industrial parks concentrate pollution produced by several industries in a specific area of the city. Although they are very often built away from residential and commercial areas, industrial parks are now rapidly approaching peripheral residential areas, due to urban expansion. Establishing an industrial zone can also lead to soil contamination.
• Increased traffic: parks often result in increased traffic in the industrial area and on nearby highways. Plus, manufacturers often use heavy vehicles to transport their materials and goods, which will cause road networks to deteriorate more quickly.
• Additional costs: depending on current management, additional costs may be charged every year to maintain the park's roads and infrastructure.
• Graffiti: some people might tag on the park and anything in the environment.

• Students have daily contact with each teacher and provides more in class time for students
• Students who suffer from attention deficit disorder and other disabilities are better able to focus during shorter periods and benefit from daily teacher-student interaction
• Students in the short attention span era of MTV, text messaging, and Youtube focus better during short periods
• Students immediately establish a pattern to their day, making it easier for them to remember their classes and assignments

FOUR NEGATIVES:

• Students have seven classes to prepare for, seven textbooks to carry, and possibly seven homework assignments
• Students will have multiple tests to study for, thus requiring the student to perform a balancing act in order to manage his/her schedule effectively
• Make it more difficult for them to adequately prepare for all their classes

• High-visibility to multiple customers each day serves as a marketing strategy on its own. 
• Mall marketing campaigns allow each store to participate in and enjoy exposure from large-scale advertising and promotional events.
• Some mall retail spaces may already have design features like shelving and light fixtures while others allow for customization and flexibility in layout and design.
• Lower utility costs are possible as some retail spaces can be smaller and require less power than a stand-alone retail business. 

FOUR NEGATIVES:

• Competition often can be high, especially if there are similar businesses to your own, along with restaurants, curiosity shops, entertainment events and other distractions in the same vicinity 
• Can prevent people from visiting who are short on time since they may need to park far away and walk a relatively long distance, compared to visiting a stand-alone store with out-front parking.
• Some malls are aging and lack proper care and maintenance, making them less attractive and bringing in less business.
• Sharing mall space with bigger retailers means small businesses working to grow their brand and physical presence may face struggles against these national big-box chains with bigger advertising budgets and a similar target audience.
