The Co-operative bank published end of December its annual publication on ethical consumerism. This year the report is particularly worth having a look because it covers the last 10 years. Over that period, expenditure on ethical services and goods grew almost threefold: In 2008, the overall ethical market in the UK was worth £36 billion compared to £13.5 billion in 1999. It will be interesting to see next year how the recession might have impacted on sales.
In addition to information on the sales of ethical products and services the report includes data on boycotts (food and drinks, travel, eating-out and clothing).
