Peace Coffee

These days there appeared a video over the Internet that shows the story about the company that makes so-called “Peace” coffee. What exactly distinquishes this kind of coffee from others? See the video. I will make only a tiny highlight that the whole production and delivery are highly stylized. You’ll see them baking, packing, tasting, toasting, roasting on a machine (a quite old machine!). And the whole time that it took them to grow – it’s around four years!

At Peace Coffee, they trade fairly with small, organic coffee grower cooperatives in Guatemala, Mexico, Colombia, Nicaragua, Ethiopia and Sumatra. They are also a founding member of Cooperative Coffees. This is a green coffee importing cooperative committed to supporting and partnering with small-scale coffee farmers and their exporting cooperatives. By importing directly from our partner-farmers, Cooperative Coffees seeks to creatively foster a more equitable and sustainable system of coffee trade that directly benefits these farmers, their families and their communities. Organized in 1999, Cooperative Coffees is owned and managed collectively by a small group of specialty coffee roasters like Peace Coffee, located in the United States and Canada. Roasters share a common interest and concern that each has addressed individually – the desire to source sustainably grown coffees and to work closely with the farmers growing it. Roasters work together, cooperatively, this way Peace Coffe can more readily impact and multiply the positive effects of their selective coffee purchasing.

Israelis and Palestinians are blogging for peace

It seems that peace topics are getting more and more attention in people’s blogs. These places as an inevident demonstration of their thoughts today perfectly reflect the worldwide desire to regain peace betwen neighbours, as sometimes it is regretfully disobeyed. The example of such thoughts expressed on blog is what I am going to tell you about.

Two friends was writing that blog. But they are not two comon dudes that live one side the street. One of them is dwelling in Sajaia refugee camp in Gaza and the other can be found in Sderot, that is a small town near Gaza. But Sderot is on the Israeli side.

As we all know the violence is ongoing among Gaza and Israel. It has been greatly intensified byt the inner and outer forces since the new century beinning. Lots of Israeli and Palestinians people were killed and also lots received injures. In addition to this any broadcast on radio, televisn or press abut all these causes had been greatly biased. The blog that they write is held by two inbiased people, that live and communicate on both sides of the war frontier.

Everyone can read their blog and sign their petition.
