Fairtrade Ireland is a brilliant initiative that is trying to get retailers to use Fairtrade materials, specifically cotton which is sometimes being sold by farmers in developing countries for less than it actually takes the farmer to grow it.
Thankfully, lots of high-street stores are now promoting the use of Fairtrade cotton including Topshop, ASOS and Warehouse so you really have no excuse!
Take a look at this short Fairtrade film and we promise you’ll never look at that ‘too good to be true’ bargain in the same way again.
