Understanding Organic Tea and Free Trade
While people around the world love tea, people in the United Kingdom are known for loving their afternoon tea. This ritual has been done for a long time but sadly, most of the people are in the dark when it comes to where and how the crops are grown. For instance, developing worlds have large tea plantations of crops that are sprayed with pesticides and other harmful chemicals. This means the tea leaves being used to make the afternoon tea is contaminated and that low paid workers handpicking the leaves are in harm’s way, as well.
