Background
Chocolate has a problem
Most people who produce cocoa don't earn enough to live on. They lack access to clean drinking water, medical care and education. To escape poverty, they clear woodland to create more arable land or use highly toxic pesticides. Some also put their children to work in the fields because they can't afford to hire harvest workers. It can't go on like this!
