By the way, you do realize that farmers use the money they get from fair trade to buy chainsaws, right? To clear more rainforest? So they can live more like we do?
Although I know this is highly off-topic, I'm afraid I've got to call you on this one. This is simply not the case. FTA's - especially the environmental protocols attached to them - are, in fact, designed to engender the opposite effect. Please either retract or substantiate this statement.
If you would care to propose a topic inre the effects of FTA's on the developing world, I'd be happy to join you there.
