I can participate in Fair Trade campaigns and look to buy what is not necessarily cheapest and what seems to be a better deal to the producers, whether they be local dairy farmers or subsistence plantation workers in Brazil. But I find this Eureka Street article is somewhat daunting, even deflating … until I look at the last sentence: Cheap milk and supermarket ethics – Eureka Street.
