Ethical food and labels to look out for




     The food choices we make can have significant implications for the environment

     and the individuals and communities that farm the produce or depend on
                                                      the land.


     To help us make better food choices, a number of organisations have created

                     labels to distinguish an item as the more ethical option.

        Do you know what these logos mean? Have a go at investigating some of

       these logos included in the table and inserting a tick in the correct row(s).















       The food item has
      not contributed to
         deforestation

      It is grown without
         using artificial
          chemicals or
            fertilisers

        There are better
         prices and safe
      working conditions
     for producers of the

           It contains

      sustainably grown
             palm oil
