The Fairtrade Foundation
Fairtrade is a global movement with a strong and active presence in the UK, represented by the Fairtrade Foundation.
Fairtrade is a movement for change that works directly with businesses, consumers and campaigners to make trade deliver for farmers and workers. The international Fairtrade system (which the Fairtrade Foundation is a part of) represents the world's largest and most recognised fair trade system. We are a global organisation working to secure a better deal for farmers and workers. With Fairtrade you have the power to change the world every day. With simple shopping choices you can get farmers a better deal. And that means they can make their own decisions, control their futures and lead the dignified life everyone deserves. Read more...

CLIMATE CHANGE & FAIRTRADE
Climate change through global warming is appearing more and more in Fairtrade Articles. Fairtrade Producers are telling more and more about how this is affecting their crops and their ways of working to produce. We will feature articles about this global subject from various sources, effects on Fairtrade and its mitigation, and will keep you up to date about what Calne is doing (and Wiltshire) to try help reduce the causes of global warming in our small but not insignificant part of the world.
