Being kind to the planet is more than just a good thing to do, it is almost a trend. Reusable grocery bags come in as many styles as purses and food labels make sure to say when they are Organic or eco-friendly in any way. When buying coffee people who want to be eco-friendly look for labels like Rainforest Alliance certification or the Bird Friendly symbol. These symbols clearly mean that the coffee was grown in a way that doesn’t harm the environment around the plantation and that the farmers make a fair wage to live off of. Some wine bottles may soon have similar marks on them.
South Africa is a country that has been trying to make a name for itself in the world of wine, but they are currently a country known for its troubles. Groups like Sustainable Wine South Africa are aiming to make exported wine labeled with groups committed to integrity and the sustainable production of wine. It can be a good feeling knowing that the great wine in those wine bags is more than just a wonderful tasting indulgence; it is also good for the environment and well being of people in South Africa.
