“Certified Organic” means that the food produce was grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, which not only benefits the environment by minimizing contamination of soil, waterways and wildlife, but it also protects the farm workers’ health by reducing their exposure to these chemicals. However, organic certification does not address economic inequality or social justice issues. The organic and Fairtrade movements criticise, what they believe to be, the unsustainable and unreasonable character of the global food system. They argue that the agro-industrial food system under-values true ecological and social production costs and therefore fuels the degradation of environmental and human resources, particularly in the South.
