| | Ethical consumerism: France sets the standard - Food Business Review |
| | Many private "ethical" commerce schemes are limited to paying producers more than the generally low global commodity prices, but without any of the commitment to sustainable development (such as investing in local community projects such as schools or hospitals) that characterize the labeling schemes endorsed by FLO. | | | The rise of ethical consumerism provides food, drinks and personal care players with an opportunity to review their relationships with consumers and to strengthen them. | | | Consumers' ethical concerns are inexorably linked to concerns over the safety of products, whether they are food, drinks or personal care items, and to issues relating to quality such as provenance, traceability and freshness. |

| | Investors who pursue a strategy of socially responsible investing (SRI) are making sure that their capital is used in a manner that aligns with their personal ethical values--taking responsibility for what their money is doing to the world around them. | | | It is estimated that around $1 trillion is involved in some type of social investing in the U.S. (about 10% of all total investments), and the number of socially and environmentally screened funds have increased from only a handful in the 1970s to over 100 by 1996. | | | It is growing exponentially in numbers of individual and institutional investors participating, in the amount of invested money involved, and, most importantly, in the movement's ability to persuade corporations to develop a sense of social responsibility in the conduct of their businesses. |
