Valentine’s Day and Sustainable Chocolate Ideas
Hello Everyone,
As you know, for 2025 the basic theme for all of my blogs will include ideas to support taking action to participate in helping alleviate Climate Change challenges.
Having said that, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and guess what? You can participate by choosing Sustainable Chocolate to give to your loved ones and friends. This is a “win, win” for you and for the Planet by taking part in Climate Action !
So what is Sustainable Chocolate and why choose it to help with Climate Change?
Use the links below to learn more about it and where you can buy it.
SOURCE: https://www.sustainably-chic.com/blog/fair-trade-chocolate-brands
A great first step when figuring out if your chocolate was ethically produced is to see if it’s fair-trade. Fair trade chocolate is produced in a way that adheres to certain ethical standards. Fair trade is a safeguard against exploitation and child labor. It guarantees that farmers are paid a fair and living wage, regardless of the market price of cocoa. Farmers are also given higher wages if they produce organic chocolate and an additional premium wage to reinvest in their business.
