Fair Trade Markets Growing Quickly (NPR)

This morning, NPR run a short story about Fair Trade and its impact in third world countries as well as its barriers.

The story focuses on cocoa and coffee, two of the main traded products, however, I find refreshing that more and more fair trade is showing in main stream media.

Follow the link to hear the story:
