I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.

I was very sorry to learn that there’s a considerable debate going on about fair trade certified tea; apparently Fair Trade decided to let in large tea plantations, and some are alleging that workers on those plantations are not seeing improved conditions or pay — some are actually suffering more. Equal Exchange is among the critics.
Equal Exchange offers its own certified teas, however, that it says come closer to meeting the goals of being sustainable and socially responsible. Note they don’t say meet them entirely.
Still trying to decide what to think about Celestial Seasonings, which produces some of my favorite teas, certified by nobody, but claims to practice “ethical trade” by working with small farmers on its own.

“Shift your diet to eat what’s available in your locality”
How do you define YOUR locality, I mean which distance around your home is your locality?
If my locality was defined by a radius of 50 miles around my home, I would be eating only heavily pesticide sprayed wheat, maize and canola, cause that’s the only foodstuff grown in my “locality”….a true recipe for starving (even before pesticide induced cancer could strike)

Very good advice from many. I have been eating organic food for 12 years and ate it before it became something else because I am old enough to remember those times. The food is excellent and doesn’t need mankind’s assistance. I only knew two people with cancer before i was 20. Then they started dropping like flies. Perhaps there is a connection?

I guess I don’t really think of France or Italy as my locality, but I shall keep my eyes peeled for European rice, thanks for the suggestion. Pasta in the UK is mostly made from Italian durum wheat, anyway.
And I shall eat more potatoes!
