    'don't buy any coffee from Ethiopia' - Black Gold does not advocate a boycott of this kind. Perhaps we could debate what you meant in your comment on the Black Gold forum (please visit our site).

    It's great that someone has finally made a movie about this trade so that the public can see for themselves what is REALLY happening out there.

    Buy Fair Trade!

    yes farmers there don't make much on the coffee. Cause they don't have to ship it, market it, transport it, distribute it, etc etc. If we could all go THERE and drink the coffee, they would make more from it, but it costs a lot of money to move it around the world. I bet you don't have to pay 3 bucks for a cup in their country.

    I do, but only fair trade. It is very good, after all.

    ...in other words... the west does not abide by free market economics..... So why is it that African nations should not be able to sanction such ideas? .... Ill tell you why... because the west want to continue to exploit its resources to maintain an obscene amount of wealth as opposed to comfortable levels of wealth - highlighted in the movie with regard to developing nations not getting a foot at the table of the WTO

    Having done an economics degree at the University of Edinburgh, I can assure you, western economies have built in fair trade mechanisms which is in law, which the developing world does not yet have. You would be naive to think otherwise. Do you really think 4 pints of milk that has come from a French dairy farmer, that you bought from Sainsburys cost less than £1.10 to make? No.

    Also look at our trade union system and co-operatives in our own history; originating in Manchester

    We don't have to spend more, a few people just have to make less and WTO needs to stop being unfair. Fair trade coffee is not that expensive when you contract directly with the growers, and if enough roasters do that then the market price will change naturally.
