WARNING!
Boycotting
without communicating with the company/corporations may make the situation
WORSE… You don’t want to do that!
Remember:
Many times if the ONLY action you take is
to not buy from these stores/brands then you might cause the company to make
decisions that make the lives of workers even worse! So go online and be aware
to see how companies you care about treat people and how they impact the
environment. And write them a letter directly.
