In the interests of the times we rather awkwardly recommended the #ShopEthical website, we are following up with the this open letter.
Dear ShopEthical.Org.Au,
Your site gives Amazon an F-rating.
Why are you then hosting it on Amazon servers?https://www.shopethical.org.au/search?q=amazon

It seems unless one orders something online, or goes abroad to purchase a phone/modem **or computer**, its impossible to obtain a new, #ethical device. By "ethical" it means, easily removeable/#replaceableBattery, a sane (smaller) size (#phones), no #fingerprintScanner hardware, easily flashable with #FOSS firmware.Imagine if instead of focusing on building nuclear subs, #Australia focused that $370b on ethical devices that protect people from abuses.

ORGANIC FARMING FAILURE in #SriLanka.
Apparently one of the reasons for President #GotabayaRajapaksa's downfall earlier this year was his "overnight" shift to organic #fertiliser.
It apparently resulted in a 20% drop in #grain yield.
Also #tea yield "dropped tremendously".
Surely there's a way to grow tea using #organicFarming or #biodynamic farming methods.
What can we learn from this apparent failure?

In terms of tuna it could be either the #heavyMetals or what they were fed for #Australian market.For soy, and other farmed products that are sprayed with toxic herbicides, pesticides and fungicides it appears to affect the #gutFlora/#microbiology of the digestive system.
After going #organic (and #ethical) all health problems disappeared, almost immediately.

We've known people will intense #digestion, #skin, #appetite and other issues. Going #organic, #ethical and #bigFish-free fixed them – even #reflexes improved.Though we support #urbanFarms, farm-to-fork distances being reduced, and flow-on benefits for #communities in doing this, it cannot be at the expense of #nutrition and seedFreedom.

Yes this problem is often referred to as the #raceToTheBottom. Most #CEOs are just good at convincing people to #workHarder for less, and #environmentalVandals.In #Australia we have a resource called #ShopEthical. Its a #website that lists #brands and the #corporations they are operated by, it informs the user of any known breaches of #ethics. It might help you in the country you're in.
Try searching for:

What percentage of jobs are considered useless, again?Work at an place that's devoid of ethics, to afford stuff you don't need (again from #unethical #corporations), to impress people you don't even like.
But at least the #stickMarket is shooting up.
