Ethics Ain't Cheap

Relevant Magazine is one of the many great things Matt has introduced me to. I had mostly listened to their podcasts, but just recently I started skimming their website when I'm procrastinating getting out of bed. Their articles can be pretty hit or miss for me, but when they're good, they're good. I found this one off my friend Jenn's blog and I'm excited to share it:

Fair Trade Clothes Are Too Pricey

As much as I thrift store shop, browse garage sales and restore old things, I also shop at H&M, Target and many other mass producing, unethical places. This article does a great job drawing attention to a well-known, yet incredibly ignored, crisis.

I can get incredibly over-whelmed when I start chalking up all the things to avoid, change or take out in my life. This world is broken. I'm thankful for the hope I have in Jesus coming back & righting every wrong.

Until then, I will keep this article in mind the next time I'm being buried alive in the clearance section of Old Navy.
