No I'm not going talk about oil. No I'm going to talk coffee. Today I saw documentary movie called Black Cold. It's about Ethiopian coffee farmers and they cooperative which are using fair trade system. Basically the film is about how thing there has gone bad to worse since 1989 when the International Coffee Agreement went down...

So if you have the opportunity to see this film I recommend it!

Good! It's nice to know that I'm not the only one here who buys fair trade coffee

Did you read that starbucks news in movie's webpage?? I think it's weird to say that we pay good money to farmers and you won't say how much you pay to them ...
