Happiness is a fairly traded banana.

Fair-trade products guarantee to give the people who grow them a fair share of the profits. You'll see all sorts of fair trade products these days - from bananas to coffee. So, if you buy a fair trade banana you can be proud of your banana.

And there are few feelings in this world that are better than being proud of your banana.

    try being onlineforgood


    Its not just what you buy, its where you buy it, especially online....If you want to make the most of your consumer power, then instead of going directly to an online retailer, go via www.onlineforgood.com. That way, you can ensure that a percentage of your purchase goes to charity - and it costs you nothing. The choice of good causes is limitless - you can add your local favourite....its a no-brainer.     05 August 2008, 19:26

    Feeling Good!


    Today, I went to London with my uncle and my cousins. I felt really good about myself because I refused plastic bags in mearly every shop I bought something from... then I bought an Marks & Spencer Twiggy reusable bag to put all my shopping in! On top of that, it was a fairly traded bag! I just feel really good as I try to reuse alot of things! Go London! for deciding to charge for plastic bags! The weather wasn't very good today but I had fun... I went on the London Eye!     24 April 2008, 15:35

    Fair Trade


    I always buy Fair Trade tea, coffee and sugar, but have now discovered fair trade peanut butter. Awesome better than any other because guess what? It only contains peanuts, none of that other stuff and it tastes great. Oh and it's good for you too. Love Divine chocolate, and buy fair trade or locally produced goods to help others, for presents etc. They are always loved. Try Ethical Superstore and also Traidcraft to name a few. Wow it feels good!     12 March 2008, 16:50

    Fair Trade Coffins


    We are a funeral directors that specialise in environmentally friendly coffins. We have coffins made from cardboard, willow, seagrass, woven banana leaves, pandanus, and sustainable wood. Our Bamboo coffins have just been given Fair Trade status. Though they come from China because of the way that they're transported their carbon footprint is the same as a 4.5 mile road trip.
