Actually not that much, for this sort of organisation. Cash probably wasn’t a factor for Boots in leaving. |
I was going to mentioned that too but your right on the scale of things it's not a huge factor, mind you if they get a nice bit of advertising and then turn round and join up again and get some more advertising could be worth dropping out

.
As for people being interested, I agree they maybe interested but it's the same as fruit and veg, people might like to eat it more but it's cheaper/easier to get other things. I think people are inherently lazy about this stuff and also the majority don't have the money to "buy ethical" cause let's face it it's nearly always cheaper to buy slave labour, non organic, rain forest destroying, polluting products

.
Not saying there's not a good bunch out there fighting the good fight though. Still it's small steps and a shame a company this size is back tracking.
