Happy new year everyone! To get 2014 off to great start I am having a monthly product protest, every month I'm going to list one item or type of item that is banned (meaning no buying, you can use it if you have it but no buying any other.) for one month. The monthly banned product can be anything from cleaning products to a specific brand of clothing depending on what the most pressing current issues are. What might the reason be behind this overwhelming idea?
Protesting the giant corporations is an important thing to do, if we're not buying and giving them business they'd be more willing to hear our demands. We need to know what is in their products for all we know they could be poisoning us! All we have is their word to go off of and that's not much from a corporation who cares more about money than an unsafe factory that their workers are forced to work in for minimal wage! If their business is in danger they'd do almost anything in their power to save their money, including listen to us!
We need to have complete disclosure on the products they're using, how much they're polluting, if they're giving their factory workers minimal wage, and what condition those people work in. It all makes a difference!
If everyone can follow this idea, we can give the big box stores a run for their money! How about changing the world for your new year's resolution?
I am welcome to any ideas you have, and please tell your friends!
Stay tuned for January's ban!
