11/12/2006 12:41Posted by: Jana MillsAs Christmas approaches and you start eyeing up that tasty new iPod, maybe its time to rethink Apple. Who would have thought it; the most beautiful designs, the cleanest looking technology in the world, but unfortunately Apple products are not as green as their name might suggest! Read on to see our three big ones for Mr. Steve Jobs (Apple big cheese). Stand up!
13/10/2006 23:44Posted by: Jana MillsIn the year 2000 world leaders agreed to the Millenium Development Goals (MDG's), an historic commitment to reduce poverty and inequality throughout the world by 2015. These weren't wild or un-realisitic goals, and they are still achievable with nine years to go. But now world leaders are starting to come up with excuses, they are starting to mumble and shuffle their feet, just like you might if you forget a piece of homework, or when your late to class! Read on to see Marco Tempest's (The Virtual Magician) Stand up video! And for more info on how you can get involved! Weapon of choice
28/09/2006 12:57Posted by: Jana MillsJae stands for Justice Arts and Education and we believe that our global society is in need of a greater degree of justice. Not as an abstract concept but as a real and tangible thing. We need a fairer world, a more peaceful and harmonious relationship with our global neighbours and a closing gap between the haves and the have nots. Fairtrade Ice cream
30/08/2006 11:38Posted by: Jana MillsIt has been a pretty miserable August here in rainy old London, but we did get one piece of news which helped keep the summer alive! Ben & Jerry's launched a new Fairtrade Vanilla Ice cream, that uses Fairtrade sugar and vanilla - YUM! This is the first ice cream product to carry the FAIRTRADE Mark in Europe. Ben & Jerry's make many delicious ice creams, but the Jae team give this one, 10/10 for moral fibre, we even made a corny video to go with it! M&S Fairtrade Jeans
23/08/2006 16:43Posted by: Ros YorkCheck out Fairtrade jeans for the ladies from M&S. Marks and Spencer's have just brought out bootcut jeans for women that have received the Fairtrade cotton certification! Fairtrade cotton is a new initiative for the high street and M&S have been the one of the first to supply their own brand of Fairtrade cotton products (they also supply Fairtrade cotton socks and t-shirts). Like all Fairtrade products, the jeans help local farmers to invest in developing their own communities. Supplies of Fairtrade cotton are very limited at the moment, but by buying M&S Fairtrade certified cotton products you enable the farmers to invest in their businesses and grow more of it. Tank Man
02/08/2006 08:00Posted by: Jana MillsThis man was captured on camera in 1989, he was standing up for his rights and the rights of his people. He stood alone, shopping in hand against a column of Chinese Type 90 tanks. Several photos and video footage was taken of the man's heroic act but to this day his identity is unknown though the sincerity of his protest continues to inspire millions to this day. (PRODUCT) RED
20/06/2006 17:58Posted by: Ros YorkThe Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has formed a new corporate initiative to create a sustainable and profitable brand: (PRODUCT) RED, which will raise funds for and awareness of the Global Fund and the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa. This initiative has been supported by the likes of Bono and Giorgio Armani. Soul Force: MK Gandhi
20/06/2006 12:56Posted by: Jana MillsThis was a tough read, more difficult than his autobiography “My Experiments With Truth”. The editor has done a good job and provides useful context for the writings but the layout of the book is still very difficult to plough through. As it is a compilation of Gandhi’s writing’s it the threads of the argument are not always easy to pick up. Traffiking
08/06/2006 15:16Posted by: Vanessa AmadiEveryday thousands of people are being trafficked to other countries or other areas within their country. It’s all around us, and that’s why we need to make a stop to this. Summer of Green
01/06/2006 11:40Posted by: Jana MillsSummer is coming and with it comes thoughts of holidays and good times, or at least we hope that the good weather will be arriving soon! It's important to remember the environment especially on holiday, which is when our carbon footprint is often the largest. STOP THE TRAFFIK
12/04/2006 16:10Posted by: Ros YorkJae is now a member of the STOP THE TRAFFIK coalition. It's is a major global coalition working together to help stop the sale of people, to see the traffickers prosecuted and to protect the victims of human trafficking and those vulnerable to this crime. The Measure of a Man
31/03/2006 00:06Posted by: Jana MillsIt always interests me to read about the religious views and creeds that motivate the great political leaders and freedom fighters. This is an incredibly short book, I read it on the train up from Kent. With only two chapters it can fit in your back pocket. |
