Answer:

"Buying rights to pollute" sounds like a license that lets you pollute as much as you want laying waste to the environment. in reality the right you buy is to reduce the pollution overall by not treating the pollution at the power plant because it is too difficult or costly and instead being allowed to emit from the power plant and pay to reduce an equal or grater amount of pollutioon from other sites which are more amenable to treatment. Overall the environment sees the same benefit, the company still pays for the improvement.
