I'm careful of the candles I buy, and soaps, that they don't contain palm products, unless there's an explanation of where the palm product was harvested and that it hasn't been from a plantation that destroyed more indigenous and old growth forest areas.
I tend to buy roo meat because it is far more ethical to eat what is already there than to contribute to demand for large scale farming of cattle, sheep and pigs, though if I buy these kinds of meat I do it from the local butcher, and not a supermarket.
DP thinks we can't afford to shop organically, but it's not just about the pesticides for me, it's about my impact on the environment. I've told him that he can take over the shopping if he's not happy with my choices, because I will not buy certain things, no matter what!
