Be wary of where you buy your coffee! Americans alone consume over 400Million cups of coffee PER DAY!  Even an inexpensive coffee costs you around $3, and that is still more than the daily wage of a Central American coffee picker. Hell, even those $3.95 cans of Maxwell House and Folgers you pick up at your local supermarket, well, the beans that fill them are bought for around a quarter and come from corporate farms that use environmentally poisonous pesticides and clear-cut forests to produce the highest possible yields.

 
Support Fair Trade, Buy Local!!
