Global Exchange : Java for Justice (#)

  „The fair trade system, formalized in the United States in 1999 but originating in Europe, seeks to guarantee small farmers a minimum "living wage" for their goods. A nonprofit organization, the Oakland-based TransFair USA, monitors the use of the fair trade logo, which is its assurance that the farmers got their due.“

  „The Dutch unwittingly gave coffee a nickname in the late 17th century, when they began the first successful European coffee plantation on their island colony of Java (now part of Indonesia). Top-grade arabicas are still produced on Java as well as on Sumatra, Sulawesi, and Flores, but the Indonesian archipelago is most notable as the world’s largest producer of robusta beans. Notable Beans: Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi (Celebes)“
