The Newsletter below (the Wag, http://www.rightreality.com/wag/) is written and distributed by David Batstone. I advertised his work in a CSR Newsletter last November, but thought his campaign for more ethical and sustainable supply chains was also worth passing on:
“In a world that is so globalized, where do the products I purchase originate? We often know so little about the resources, practices, and labor that bring even everyday objects into our lives. What human rights are being violated in order for me to live the lifestyle I do, and how can I change my life to put an end to those violations? It is baffling that for even the simplest things in our lives this question cannot be answered so simply.”
He outlines his thoughts in his commentary in the edition of the Wag below (‘Where is my t-shirt from?’) and points those who are interested in more detail to his free2work website (http://www.free2work.org/).
Have a good weekend.
