Fairtrade and climate change- Sustainable Hackney

Farmers from the Global South are already the most affected by global climate change.  This is despite the fact that they and other people from the majority of the world have contributed least to causing it.  Fairtrade gives farmers a collective voice and platform to raise their concerns, and some will advocate at the forthcoming Climate Change talks in Paris.  This is a global union of people on the ground; people who really know what is going on.
