Ethics

Ethical consumerism or consumption is a broadly utilized concept for organizations that provide products that address consumer interest in environmentally safe or positive for society and the support of these organizations or products by consumers. This concept is also associated with corporate social responsibility and forms of political activism where consumption is an act that places value in how products are manufactured.

Julie Irwin, writing in the Harvard Business Review $($January $2015)$ stated: $"$we showed that people who care about ethical issues such as child labor. will, strangely enough, avoid finding out whether their products are made using child labor. But then if you give them the information, they will incorporate it into their purchasing. Ethical information is difficult to process, and it is common for consumers to want to remain willfully ignorant of it$".$
