What Was the Greatest Era for Innovation? A Brief Guided Tour

Which was a more important innovation: indoor plumbing, jet air travel or mobile phones? 

  We’re in the golden age of innovation, an era in which digital technology is transforming the underpinnings of human existence. Or so a techno-optimist might argue. 
  We’re in a depressing era in which innovation has slowed and living standards are barely rising. That’s what some skeptical economists believe.
   The truth is, this isn’t a debate that can be settled objectively. Which was a more important innovation: indoor plumbing, jet air travel or mobile phones? You could argue for any of them, and data can tell plenty of different stories depending on how you look at it. Productivity statistics or information on inflation-adjusted incomes is helpful, but can’t really tell you whether the advent of air-conditioning or the Internet did more to improve humanity’s quality of life.

Q1253773 Inglês
Fair trade – but what’s in it for the world?

 The fair trade movement, which aims ensure that fair prices are paid to producers in developing countries, is one of the true global success stories recent decades. The International Fairtrade Certification Mark, a guarantee that producers are getting a fair price, has become one of the most recognizable logos the world, which 91 percent of customers associate positive values. When the logo first appeared in the UK, the country where the largest number of fair-trade products are sold, nobody expected that the number of certified products would grow from only 3 to over 4,500 in just 18 years. In 2011, people around the world spent more than 6.5 billion US dollars on fair- -trade certified goods, signifying a 12 percent increase in sales from the previous year. This was at a time when most market segments in the developed world were still shrinking or stagnating from the after effects of the 2008 banking crisis. Over 1.2 million farmers and workers living in 66 countries benefit from fair- -trade certification by being able to sell their products at competitive prices, to ensure sustainability.

 Fair-trade initiatives have been growing steadily since the late 1960s, when the fair trade movement started with only a handful of committed individuals in the West who believed there was an alternative to the exploitation of farmers and workers in the developing world. Fair trade ensures fair prices for suppliers, as well as payment of a premium that can be reinvested in the local communities (for example, in schools or sanitation) or in improving productivity. In India, for instance, a group of rice farmers used the premium to buy farm machinery, which meant a 30 percent improvement in production.

 As consumers look for, and recognize, the logo and purchase fair-trade products, they put pressure on companies and governments to do more for global welfare. They also put pressure on supermarkets to sell fair-trade goods at the same price as conventional products, shifting the extra costs involved from consumers to the corporations that collect the profits.

 Critics of the fair trade movement say it is still not doing enough. They stress that the key to long-term development is not in small local improvements, but in moving the developing world from the production of raw materials into processing them, which can bring in greater profit. There are already some signs of this happening. A group of tea growers in Kenya recently set up a processing factory to deliver the final products directly to their customers in the West. By switching from the export of raw tea to boxed fair-trade products, they achieved 500 percent higher profits.

 It is important to realize that, despite all of its benefits, the fair trade movement has its limitations. Some of the poorest farmers can’t afford to pay the certification fees required for each fair-trade initiative, while others work for big, multinational employers that are excluded from participating. Fair trade is certainly a step in the right direction, but there is a lot more we must continue to do in order to help people in the world’s poorest regions.

The Teacher


Amelia Jane


Remember when we met?

When I was just a kid.

And you said to me,

'It's okay, we're all friends here.'

And treated me like a normal kid?

Well even if you don't,

Thank you, as you now mean the world to me.


Remember when I first cried in front of you?

When times were tough for me.

And you said to me,

'It's okay, I'm here.'

And it all seemed a little better?

Well even if it's slipped your mind,

It made me who I am today.


Remember when you fell apart?

You couldn't cope without your Dad.

And I said to you,

'It's okay, I'm here for you.'

And you put back up your mask?

Because it had slipped that day and I saw,

The real you, scared and hiding.


Remember when I left you?

To move on to my next stage.

And you said to me,

'I'll always be here for you.'

And we hugged and talked for hours?

You wanted me to chase my dreams,

And helped me through my fear.


Remember when I became you?

And you took to the sidelines.

And I said to you,

'I'm here to carry on.'

And you watched like a proud parent,

As I took my first steps?


Now it's me remembering you,

As you lie in the ground.

I'll always remember your calming voice,

And be grateful for what I found.
