Q1750586 Inglês
Let’s keep the lights on when she’s your age. What sort of world will this little girl grow up in? Many experts agree that it will be a considerably more energyhungry one. There are already seven billion people on our planet. And the forecast is that there will be around two billion more by 2050. So if we’re going to keep the lights on for her, we will need to look at every possible energy source. At Shell we’re exploring a broad mix of energies. We’re making our fuels and lubricants more advanced and more efficient than before. With our partner in Brazil, we’re also producing ethanol, a biofuel made from renewable sugar cane. And we’re delivering natural gas to more countries than any other energy company. When used to generate electricity, natural gas emits around half the CO2 of coal. Let’s broaden the world’s energy mix. (Newsweek. June 25, 2012. Cover. Adapted.)

Q1750355 Inglês
   A Brazilian company has agreed to pay nearly $ 7 billion in compensation after a dam collapsed at one of its mines in Brazil two years ago, killing 270 people and causing huge damage to the local environment.
  The settlement with the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, which was announced on Thursday, is the largest in the country’s history, according to local media. The Court of Justice of Minas Gerais mediated the agreement, which will provide funds for affected communities, emergency aid and resources for urban mobility.
  In January 2019, a dam holding waste water from the company’s iron ore mine in the town of Brumadinho burst, burying the workers’ cafeteria and dozens of homes under a toxic wave of sludge. It also polluted local rivers.
   Minas Gerais, a state whose name translates to “general mines”, is a mining hub in the southeast of Brazil. The 2019 disaster came after another mining dam in the state burst in November 2015, inundating the small village of Mariana and killing 19 people.
   “Our company is committed to fully repair and compensate the damage caused by the tragedy in Brumadinho and to increasingly contribute to the improvement and development of the communities in which we operate,” the company’s CEO said in a statement.
   In 2016, a mining company reached a deal with the Brazilian government to pay up to 24 billion reais ($ 6,2 billion) over the Mariana dam collapse.
   The disasters, which left thousands of families in mourning, have renewed scrutiny of the company’s practices and of environmental regulations in Minas Gerais.
   The company involved in the Brumadinho disaster has said that since the latest breach two years ago, it has tried to work with “the impacted families, providing assistance to restore their dignity, well-being and livelihoods.”
   “In addition to meeting the most immediate needs of the affected people and regions, it is also working to deliver projects that promote lasting change to recover communities and benefit the population effectively,” the company said in its statement.

According to the previous text, judge the following item.
Helping the people who were affected by the disaster is the only action taken by the company mentioned in the first paragraph so far to correct their fault.
