Fairtrade is important because so many farmers and workers in developing countries get a raw deal for their work from supermarkets and companies who want to offer their customers rock bottom prices. Wouldn't it be better for us to forgo an extra pound or two so that these farmers get a decent wage instead of being exploited? How about you commit to take just one step towards this?
