You're a new consultant and you have few clients. You've just locked in a client, Woodworking furniture and CO . who creates and sells wood

You're a new consultant and you have few clients. You've just locked in a client, Woodworking furniture and CO. who creates and sells wood furniture, and they're looking to expand into Brazil. You're counting on this work with your new client to add to your portfolio and provide a reference after a successful integration to your expanded market proposal. You've done the market research and you see that Woodworking Furniture and CO.will be viable in Brazil. But there is an issue, by expanding the company to the new market, you would increase profit (great!), but at a cost. The cost wouldn't be monetary, but it would contribute to great environmental degradation by clear cutting the Amazon rainforest to source their wood. You're torn on how to approach the situation. On one hand, you need the reference to grow your business and you can justify the expansion by outlining that "It isn't your company that is clearcutting the forest", but on the other hand, you would be suggesting the expansion occur and Woodworking Furniture and CO. will expand based on your recommendation.
