LIME recently posted this amazing video featuring a wonderful and morally responsible company called MORAL FERVOR.  They design and make sustainable fashion that is good for the mind, body, soul and would you believe the environment.  I also discovered that LIME actually produced this visually beautiful video as well.  So let me ask you, should our beliefs and values transcend into our work?  I have attached info on the company as well as a article written about their mission.  Let me know what you think.

Better not not buy at all

If we're going to give more than lip service to our beliefs, then yes, your beliefs should extend into our jobs and work. But it is more environmentally friendly to just not buy the latest fashions or designer clothes, even if they are responsibly made.

We have to dress ourselves and I for one am not a sewer.  I think that it is part of the cycle to keep businesses going.  I would certainly think about  supporting a business who was environmentally friendly and cared about the product it produced.  They are helping to keep food on the table for some family who makes the cloth, so yes, I would buy fashionable clothes.

maiking a difference

Yes they should.  If most of us did that we would be much more happier.  When you believe in the thing you are doing, you do a better work and don't think of it as such.  Who wants to go to "work" everyday.  I would prefer to go to a place where I thought I was making a difference.
