World Fair Trade Day 2015
Today is World Fair Trade Day - an opportunity to discover what Fair Trade is all about, see how you can get involved and make a difference in the lives of artisans and farmers around the world. "Why?" you may ask and the answer is simple: "Because we're all connected." Consumer choices, especially in the west, affect so many people around the world - many who are living well below the poverty line, unable to provide the basic necessities of life for their families. I have many links to various Fair Trade websites on the right side of my blog, so take some time to check them out today. Small changes can make a big difference so choose to purchase Fair Trade today, whether that be chocolate, coffee, tea, bananas, wine or flowers (and the list goes on!).
