How far do you take your ethics?

[Guest guest]

Picking up the gauntlet which was laid down yesterday about starting

discussion threads, one thing I've wondered about is how far other

vegans are ethical in every day life? For example, have you signed up

with a green electricity company? Do you actively boycott any particular

companies and, if so, on what grounds? Do you go out of your way to buy

organic and/or fairtrade products? etc. etc.

 

For some at least, I guess it comes down to a question of convenience

and time against how strongly we feel about something. I've bought the

Ethical Consumer (http://www.ethicalconsumer.org/) publication " The Good

Shopping Guide " and have d to their magazine. There are

certainly a few eye-openers in there, but in some cases you have to go

seriously out of your way to obtain the most ethical goods or services.

So, how far do you go in pursuit of an ethical lifestyle and how often

do you find yourself wondering if it's far enough?
