  Exactly, so again, if that's the reason, why build that tunnel at all in the islands with low population rather than in a big city where there are a lot more lives to be saved ?

> why not build that tunnel in a big city The Faroe Islands are _tiny_. Land area of about 1,399km² Just a little bit larger than New York City, which is 1212km². Long Island, NY more than twice as big.
