Global Exchange : Pursuing Justice One Cup at a Time (#)
„Coffee is not the only fair-trade product attracting faith groups' attention. SERRV International, begun in 1949, partners with 27 denominations to sell fair-trade crafts from around the world. But perhaps the grandmother of church-sponsored fair-trade projects is Ten Thousand Villages, started 58 years ago by the Mennonite Central Committee, the relief and development agency of the Mennonite and Brethren in Christ denominations. Today, the nonprofit chain of 150 stores throughout North America sells handicrafts purchased under fair-trade agreements with Third World artisans.“

Global Exchange : News Updates
„Pursuing Justice One Cup at a Time -- Quakers who meet in Northwest Washington take a small step for global justice at their social functions by serving only "fair-trade" coffee. With concerns growing about globalized trade, faith groups across the country increasingly are connecting their java habit to their faith life by getting involved with the decades-old fair-trade movement.“

„All of that hasn't discouraged the Canby duo, who run a machine shop and have sold a few hundred of their CappACup. The CappACup isn't a lid per se, but a plastic arm that clips to your coffee cup and reaches over to cover the sip hole on the lid.“

„I'd like for us to return to cupping for a moment. Before, I mentioned how it is important for the production roaster to take part in the cuppings that decide which coffees will be purchased, and how they will be roasted. I would imagine that this is already fairly common practice. One more thing I want to stress along those same lines is the continued cupping of coffees well after you have initially decided on their roast levels.“
