Livre d'Or

I work in ethical retail (see my comment above) and I agree with a lot of what you say.

I remember being at work and a customer gave us a copy of an ethical shopping guide, and after they left my colleague and I started making a list of how to be an ethical consumer, which began with things like:

1. Have enough money left over after you pay bills to be able to afford to make choices about food and other consumer products
2. Have a stay at home spouse who can spend their day shopping at different locations across the city
2.a. Have a vehicle of some sort to get to those locations (This may conflict with your environmental ethics, so it will probably have to be some sort of energy efficient vehicle.)

I think that's as far as we got before feeling the point had been made.

I also like what you say about picking your battles.
