Hello beautiful people and welcome back to my blog.
I hope you are doing well and you are in good spirits to read my blog. I will tell you today about Fairtrade and Charity work and I want to give you some facts about it. I hope that you will like my blog.

First of all, it could be said that Fair trade connects consumers, traders and producers with the goal to achieve a fair price for small-scale farmers products. Fairtrade’s vision is a world in which farmers and workers on plantations in so-called developing countries can have higher living standards. Fairtrade products are labeled goods that come from fair trade in the production of which certain social, ecological and economic criteria were observed. These products are very trendy at the moment.

Some charities raise the standard of living in developing countries, donate, provide basic packages, and some people in these countries even receive housing. The goals of these organizations are self-sufficiency for the developing countries and that these countries can make headway in terms of education and development, diseases, infrastructure, environment and politics. These countries are often forced to fight against malnutrition. In addition, they have almost no sanitary facilities and the basic needs are very bad.

All in all, I can say everyone can do something to help these countries, and only with one thing: shop consciously . See what you buy! Let us all do what we can to help this countries.
I hope you find my blog interesting and you have an idea of these organisazions and think about what you will buy next time!

Stay tuned, there will be something new soon.

The hard life of a celebrity

Hi guys,

Have you ever had the dream of being famous? Today I would like to tell you about the positive and negative aspects of being famous and about problems that famous persons might have.

I’d like to start with the reasons why people want to be famous. Many persons want to be famous, but why? I think the main reason is money. I believe that every one of us wants to have much money to buy the things we want to have. Therefore, many guys want to be famous. Another reason is that people like to be in public and want to have many fans that adore them. But there aren’t only good aspects of being famous.

There are also negative and dangerous aspects of stardom. The first negative aspect is that you have stalkers and when you have them, you don’t have any privacy. I think everyone needs his own space because when you don’t have privacy, it isn’t good for your health because you will get a mental disorder. And stalkers can also be very dangerous for you and for your kids because they can kidnap you or your kids and then they ask for money. And you will also feel a lot of pressure because you have to be ‘perfect’ all the time.

Finally, there are also problems that celebrities have. One problem that famous people have is that they get on the wrong track and start taking drugs or they become alcoholics. Stars also have problems with fake friends and haters.

After all, I believe being famous is very hard and not always funny and cool.

The sense of Fairtrade

juliapakh0208; MAR 31,2020; 18.48 pm

Hi community, hope you all are doing well. I know some will be confused why I decided to open up a new blog. My old one, based on healthy food and nutrition , is still alive, but I wanted to reach my readers, you, to open your mind for a recent theme. I’m sure you have heard  about Fairtrade. Therefore , the positive aspects and the idea behind Fairtrade should be known better.

What is Fairtrade about? It is a certified sign, which helps small-scale farmers in developing countries. These farmers have to compete in the global marketplace against big entrepreneurs  without really knowing how to market their own harvest. Additionally, Fairtrade certified labels are able to support farmers to receive a fair price for their products as well as they enable them higher living standards.

May I highlight that Fairtrade is closely linked to my other blog ? Towards a better world as with healthy food and sustainability , Fairtrade is a main issue, for instance  the help they give to poor farmers and how they teach them to make headway. Moreover, the whole process  happens with sustainable practices. These fair conditions are a step into a better world and a future worth living.

Next to Fairtrade, there are other ways to help people in need, for example , with charities . Donations for charity organisations can help people in need to survive a disaster, moreover shelters and sanitary facilities are provided. Furthermore, many organisations have tried to find ways to satisfy basic needs in the case of poor people like those living in war zones, starving people and refugees. All of these organizations are trying to help those people, for whom a standard of living like ours doesn’t even occur in their dreams.

Finally, I wanted to point out that some important goals of all helping associations are to fight against malnutrition and give people in need self-sufficiency. Everyone of us, of our community, can make the charities’ goals to their own. Above all , I hope I could convince  some of you, to buy Fairtrade and to support charities similarly to their supporting of our world.

Fairtrade in the global world

Hello dear readers!

Healthy and fairly produced goods are more and more essential in our society. The shops often offer the same products with different prices. Some of those, mostly the more expensive ones, show the Fairtrade logo which the cheap products don’t have. How important it is to take the right buying decision, you can find out now.

In developing countries people often have to survive a disaster. Especially, small-scale farmers are poor and have no access to commodity markets which means that their products are mostly bought by big companies for a starvation price. If farmers would receive a fair price for their work they could achieve a higher living standard.

Charities are supporting these people with donations to cover their basic needs but also by providing shelter. These poor farmers would benefit from entrepreneurs who market all harvest from one region with a fair price to other countries. That is the only possibility to compete in the global marketplace.

Another important point to make headways with the self-sufficiency of farmers is to build a good infrastructure and some schools for their children. If this all is respected, we will see thriving communities.

Summing up you can help these farmers by buying Fairtrade products and stop the poverty in these countries. Let me know what your experiences are with Fairtrade products and what you think about this topic by writing a comment.

Fairtrade – an association which makes life’s better

Hello, dear blog readers!

Today I’m going to tell you something about Fairtrade and how this association helps little farmers to get a better life.

Firstly, Fairtrade is an association which helps small – scale farmers in developing countries to market their harvest and to receive a fair price for their products. Also, Fairtrade farmers use sustainable practices for the products they grow. Without Fairtrade, they couldn’t meet their basic needs or provide a shelter for their families and have to fight for survival day for day, but because they are part of Fairtrade they can also fight against malnutrition because they have more money for important groceries.

Secondly, these little entrepreneurs get the chance to live on higher living standards if they gain access to markets and they can compete in the global market.

Lastly, Fairtrade is a benefit to all of us because we can buy products with the Fairtrade logo on top, like coffee, bananas, oranges, clothes and much more with a good conscience because we know that the farmers behind these products have a good life.

All in all, it can be said that you do right if you buy any products with the Fairtrade logo. I hope you liked my blog, feel free to leave a comment and tell me your experiences or know-how about Fairtrade.

 

Fairtrade and Charity work

Fairtrade and Charity work

We live in the 21st century, we have made a lot of headway in different areas, but a lot still goes wrong. According to a website named “Länderdaten.info”, in total there are 152 developing countries around the world with different problems like child labour, malnutrition, unemployment, underpayment and many more.

However, there are various charities which help people in these countries. Such a charity is for example, “Fairtrade”. Fair trade is an organisation, which helps small-scale farmers to market their harvest and to gain access to commodity markets. They want the farmers to receive a fair price for their products.

As a result, the basic needs of the farmers are met. Additionally, they can build some basic equipment like sanitary facilities and, therefore, the farmers reach higher living standards. Thanks to Fairtrade such mall-scale farmers can compete in the global marketplace and that’s a big benefit to them.

Thank you for reading my blog. It would be a pleasure for me, if you would leave a comment!

The injustice of today’s world

susii.r, 20th March 2020, 6:48 pm

Hey guys and welcome back to my blog. I hope you are feeling fine at these difficult times. I know, it’s not easy for all of us, but if we comply with the rules of our governments, we’ll surely save several lives. But today’s topic doesn’t deal with the Corona virus, but rather with an issue, we couldn’t get a grip on for a couple of years, the unfairness of the global marketplace.

We think that we live in a world which makes headway in several kinds of directions like technology and medicine. However, we sometimes tend to forget the poor among us. The lot, who can’t satisfy their basic needs, who develop dependency to big companies and aren’t able to find a way out.

These people mostly live in developing countries and face numerous issues. One of the biggest problems they have to deal with is to receive a fair price for their products. Small-scale farmers don’t have the right tools to compete in the global marketplace. Though, if they could gain access to markets, they would be able to market their harvest to fair conditions. In succession, they could reach self-sufficiency.

To ensure they achieve this big goal, charities try to collect money. Thereby, they try to fight against malnutrition, provide shelters and build sanitary facilities. Consequently, if we support those charities by donations, we will soon be able to say, that we make great strides in almost every sector of the world.

So let us all stick together and support charities like Fairtrade. This doesn’t take us much, but for these poor small-scale farmers it would mean the world. Don’t you think so? Please let me know your thoughts on this topic by joining the discussion in the comments below.

Stay healthy and positive!

Being famous is fun until…

By: Bianca Eder

Hey guys,

Today I am going to talk about the positive and negative aspects of being famous.

I have already caught myself thinking how nice it would be to be known worldwide and I bet you thought that at least once, too. Being a person people look up to, having lots of money and friends, simply living an easy and relaxing life is everything you could want in life. You can make your hobby your job and buy expensive cars and mansions.

We all think that being famous and rich automatically means being happy but the saying “You can’t buy happiness” doesn’t come out of nowhere.
Let’s just think about all the stress, the fans want the artist to release new music, art or videos but most people cannot imagine how difficult it has to be to always get a new good idea. Additionally, stars are never allowed to make mistakes because it will immediately cause rumors everywhere. So, they literally have no privacy because wherever they go, someone knows them.

Another commonly-known problem is that there are also stalkers, fans or haters that get too obsessed with their favorite celebrity. They might follow the star around and might even break into their house and try everything to get close to their idol or enemy. It could also be that, all of a sudden, old friends want to have contact and be friends with the celebrity, just to get some advantages in life because they are a friend of the well-known star.

What do you guys think about it, would you like to be famous? Please leave a comment…

Best wishes,

Bianca

Being famous – boon or bane?

Hi guys,

Today I want to talk about being famous. I think everyone once thought: “I want to be famous”. But have you already thought about both the positive AND the negative aspects?

There are many pros of being famous, for example, to have much money. You can buy everything you want; clothes, jewellery, expensive cars, a huge house and much more. It’s possible that your hobby is your job, for example, as a singer. Maybe you can have a private jet, so you can go everywhere you want. You will meet new friends and famous people. There will be fans, who will scream if they see you and they want to take a picture with you. You can give your family some money if they need some, or they can move into a better house. Being famous looks fantastic and gorgeous.

But there is also a shady side which is why I also want to talk about the cons of being famous. First of all, you will have no time for your family because you are on tour, have meetings or you have to fly to another country to do your job. People have high expectations towards you, so you have to give your best – always. Furthermore, privacy is a strange word for famous people. Fans and stalkers will find you, no matter where you are. Also, there are trends you have to follow, no matter if you like it or not because people expect this of you. It’s absolutely likely to have fake friends who only love your fame and not you as a person. These are reasons that can cause a lot of stress and many famous people help themselves with alcohol and drugs. It’s terrible.

Do you still want to be famous? What do you think about fame? Do you know any other pros or cons of being famous? Please comment! I hope you enjoyed reading my blog!

I’m very excited to read your comments,

Lisa

Pros and cons of being famous

Welcome to my blog!

Today I want to write about what it is like to be famous.

There are many reasons why people want to be famous, for example, the money. Nowadays, you can do so much with money, for example, buy expensive cars, mansions, designer clothes and much more. With money you can also support your parents and family, you can buy your children what they want and go on holiday wherever you want. But money isn’t the only good thing when you’re famous. If you’re famous, you probably turned your hobby into your job, so this is a thing that you probably like to do. You’re never bored, you have always something to do and a big fan group that supports you.

But being famous also has disadvantages. You absolutely don’t have as much privacy as a “normal” person, and this can be really irritating. You don’t have much free time, you’re always stressed. This is probably one reason why so many famous people do drugs. With all the money and fame also come fake friends, they are only there for you as long as you have money and fame. It’s very difficult to find true friends when you’re famous because you only see who is your real friend when you are broke and out. In addition, I think it is a big problem to always follow the trend. You always have to do the things that are “in”, wear the hyped clothes and follow the style that is trendy. It’s also very difficult to keep your privacy, fans can always find out where you live and wait until you come outside only to take a photo.

All in all, there are many advantages and disadvantages of being famous, but personally, I don’t want to be famous.

I hope you liked my blog.
