Comment on Withdrawal is going to make people go mad
Eiri@lemmy.ca 5 weeks agoI wanted some foreign goods to get more expensive. To end slavery, not to escalate a trade war!
I should have checked my vicinity for any stray monkey’s paws when I made that wish.

“Fair Trade” is what you’re looking for. I don’t know how legit all instances are or whether they make a real difference, but I taps an attempt

This may sound pedantic, but you’re looking for Fairtrade (one word) for the organization with the strictest vetting standards. Fair Trade (two words) isn’t regulated and just means they follow some sort of ethical code. It’s not necessarily bad, but it warrants more product specific research.

Huh I wonder how many Fair Trade items I bought thinking they were Fairtrade. Thanks.
