How is Fair-trade a citizenship activity? Is it active?

Answer 1

Fair trade assures that the producers of goods get a fair price and that their farming methods don't destroy the land. As U.S. or Canadian citizens, we support our own ideals by supporting fair trade for others. It's active in the sense that we as consumers purchase fair trade products.
