(UNESP - 2014 - 1 FASE) Leia o texto para responder questoHow can consumers find out if a corporation is greenwashing environmentally unsavory practices?June 29, 2013In essence, greenwashing involves falsely conveying to consumers that a given product, service, company or institution factors environmental responsibility into its offerings and/or operations. CorpWatch, a non-profit organization dedicated to keeping tabs on the social responsibility (or lack thereof) of U.S.-based companies, characterizes greenwashing as the phenomena of socially and environmentally destructive corporations, attempting to preserve and expand their markets or power by posing as friends of the environment.One of the groups leading the charge against greenwashing is Greenpeace. Corporations are falling all over themselves, reports the group, to demonstrate that they are environmentally conscious. The average citizen is finding it more and more difficult to tell the difference between those companies genuinely dedicated to making a difference and those that are using a green curtain to conceal dark motives.Greenpeace launched its Stop Greenwash campaign in 2009 to call out bad actors and help consumers make better choices. The most common greenwashing strategy, the group says, is when a company touts an environmental program or product while its core business is inherently polluting or unsustainable.Another involves what Greenpeace calls ad bluster: using targeted advertising or public relations to exaggerate a green achievement so as to divert attention from actual environmental problems or spending more money bragging about green behavior than on actual deeds. In some cases, companies may boast about corporate green commitments while lobbying behind the scenes against environmental laws.Greenpeace also urges vigilance about green claims that brag about something the law already requires: For example, if an industry or company has been forced to change a product, clean up its pollution or protect an endangered species, then uses Public Relations campaigns to make such action look proactive or voluntary. For consumers, the best way to avoid getting greenwashed is to be educated about who is truly green and who is just trying to look that way to make more money. Look beyond advertising claims, read ingredient lists or askemployees about the real information on their companys environmental commitment. Also, look for labels that show if a given offering has been inspected by a reliable third-party. For example, the U.S. Department of Agricultures Certified Organic label can only go on products that meet the federal governments organic standard. Just because a label says made with organic ingredients or all-natural does not mean the product qualifies as Certified Organic, so be sure to look beyond the hype.(www.scientificamerican.com.

(UNESP - 2014 - 2 FASE)Chegou s mos do Capito Jack Sparrow, do Prola Negra, o mapa da localizao de um grande tesouro enterrado em uma ilha do Caribe.Ao aportar na ilha, Jack, examinando o mapa, descobriu que P1 e P2 se referem a duas pedras distantes 10 m em linha reta uma da outra, que o ponto A se refere a uma rvore j no mais existente no local e que(a) ele deve determinar um ponto M1 girando o segmento P1A em um ngulo de 90 no sentido anti-horrio, a partir de P1;(b) ele deve determinar um ponto M2 girando o segmento P2A em um ngulo de 90 no sentido horrio, a partir de P2;(c) o tesouro est enterrado no ponto mdio do segmento M1M2.Jack, como excelente navegador, conhecia alguns conceitos matemticos. Pensou por alguns instantes e introduziu um sistema de coordenadas retangulares com origem em P1 e com o eixo das abscissas passando por P2. Fez algumas marcaes e encontrou o tesouro.A partir do plano cartesiano definido por Jack Sparrow, determine as coordenadas do ponto de localizao do tesouro e marque no sistema de eixos inserido no campo de Resoluo e Resposta o ponto P2 e o ponto do local do tesouro.
