It's been a month since the disaster, but authorities are still investigating the causes and seem to fail to point responsibilities. The company that operates the dams simply did not explain what led to the burst and the following "brown tsunami", as it's been called. Sixty emplyees are to be interrogated this month.

The mud crossed almost the entirety of the state of Minas Gerais, reached the state of Espírito Santo and even went into the ocean, contaminating 80 sqaure kilometers of the sea surface.

Those inhabitants still could not go back home, and volunteers from all over the country are working, with the Army and all, to rebuild the region as soon as possible. The Justice works to punish the company for homicide, environmental crime... R$ 300 millions from the company are to be destinated to indemnification of the families, plus R$ 1 billion to guarantee actions of prevenction of new accidents. Wow, that's... that's rough. I'm sorry.

Did that third dam burst or not? What's the situation with that??

That's terrible, that the company won't fess up. Good that 60 employees are being interrogated though, it needs to be known what (or who) is behind all of this.

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus... That's terrible. I'm sorry.

Of course they couldn't go back home, yeah, that's horrid... Wow, I'm so sorry. Of course, yeah, good for the volunteers, that sounds amazing.

Good, punishment is in order.

Good, good good good. That's good, where the money is going. I daresay it perhaps should be more, but then again, I'm not good with finances,business, or spending money (or saving it)/knowing where to spend it in general...
