I only buy fair-trade chocolate, tea etc. and I get almost all consumer goods second hand
...and when I set up a cafe, I made sure the ingredients were as ethically sourced as possible, with no GM, Israeli, animal products etc etc.

You're making sweeping generalisations about everybody without actually knowing what we buy. I consider myself an ethical shopper, but it can be bloody hard to get accurate info on absolutely everything, especially with all the greenwash around.

It can also be difficult to influence people to follow your example if you come across as self-righteous. Just saying.

Who's to say they're setting an example?
