Dear Mr. Fred Pearce,
From one Eco-Sinner to another, I commend you for actually taking the time to see where everything comes from or goes to. Very little do we think about how our every day activities affect the rest of the world. I shudder to think about my "carbon footprint". Though I do not plan on buying more beans like you did, I will try to change things around in my lifestyle to make my carbon footprint a bit smaller. One thing I may have trouble doing though, is paying more for my jeans. I admit, I am cheap. Though I understand the hard labor that the people in the Bangladesh sweatshops go through, and this may sound extremely selfish but I am used to a certain lifestyle and though it isn't as rough as some, it isn't as lavish as others. As much as i love H&M, I simply can not pay for $30 jeans. Maybe once in awhile, if my heart bleeds a bit, I may make such a purchase just for those in Bangladesh, but don't expect too much out of me. I look forward to listening to the second half of this lecture.
