They usually wear a school uniform of a plain white cotton shirt,
a comfortable sweater, and a pair of black trousers or a skirt. Tomorrow
they're leaving for India to make a television programme. It's about their
mission to find a way of making ethical school shirts because they don't
want their uniforms to be made in a sweatshop. They're angry that the
high-street shops make a lot of money, but the workers hardly ever benefit.
S.
The three teenagers visit the cotton fields in India and see the darker side of the
clothing industry. Here, they're meeting a young girl who works 12 hours a day
for less than five pounds a week. That's less than Sam's pocket money!
But Trish, Sam and Rita discover that it is possible to find organic, fair trade
cotton. They visit a remote organic village where farmers don't employ
young children and they never use pesticides. 'Fair trade is much more than
a logo - it really affects people's lives,' says Sam.
Sam, Rita and Trish are looking for a factory to transform the
rolls of cotton into shirts. They travel to Tirupur, the clothing
capital of India. There they find an ethical factory where the
workers are well treated, so they order a box of shirts.
Here we can see Sam, Rita and Trish's classmates. They are wearing the
new white school shirts. If people can make fair trade shirts for just four
pounds each, why can't the high-street shops do the same?
