In thinking about what issues I wanted to include on my list for inclusion in discussion on this blog I decided to make a list. I have been writing about human trafficking on another blog and included several different types of trafficking in my posts there which I believe I will transfer. I would also like to explore not only trafficking issues but also poverty, orphans, economic, environmental and resource injustice.
Here's my list - not sure I will stick to it but I hope to cover all of these topics as time goes on.
Human Trafficking; sex, chocolate, rugs, sugar, citrus crops in the US, domestic labor, agricultural labor, cultural slavery.
What does Fair Trade mean?
Poverty: what is poverty, how to help those in poverty w/o hurting them, what philosophies work, how about children stuck in poverty?
Orphans; How to best help, how big a problem?
What economic policies specifically work/don't work in poverty alleviation?
What are we doing to prevent toxins from effecting the next generation, how do we live w/ as little toxicity as possible in our homes?
Why do so many people live w/o clean water and proper sanitation? What can we do about it?
