Hi guys, I don't know how much this concerns other countries, but I believe it is quite relevant to us.
I'm at university and I am a member of P&P, which is a student organisation set up to tackle important issues. One issue which I was not aware of until recently was the lack of fairtrade vegan produce, according to this article;

Fairtrade produce is coming our way, but it still will not be mainstream for a good while yet.
Call me stupid, but I did'nt realise until now that a lot of beans, chickpeas etc. cannot be grown in this country.
It seems like we just cannot win. Beans and pulses are essential for our diet and we can only get them by exploiting other people.
Any thoughts?
