Common Goods - Ethical Consumerism


With every dollar we spend, we are communicating to corporations, governments, and global trade organizations how we want them to operate. Currently, many of these entities operate in such a way that workers, including children, are allowed to be exploited or even enslaved. Other goods are made in ways that are unsustainable for the environment, or for the communities who produce these goods.

Follow the links below to learn more about the ethical issues we face as consumers and what you can do to shop for justice. Together, we can purchase common goods for the common good.

Learn About The Issues

What is ethical consumption? Why does it matter? Get up-to-date on the issues involving the products we buy every day.

Fair Trade

Fair Trade goods are just that. Fair. From far-away farms to your shopping cart, products that bear this logo come from farmers and workers who are justly compensated. With Fair Trade USA, the money you spend on day-to-day goods can improve an entire community’s day-to-day lives.
