Still doing more campaigning at work on the issue of blood diamonds and tomorrow is of course valentine's day! The Independent today carried a story on what to buy for your lover if you want it to be 'ethical/sustainable' and my colleague was quoted about conflict diamonds and what consumers should ask in retailers when buying diamonds.
It was interesting to read in the US of a recent case in i think Tucson, where two people were arrested for allegedly smuggling about 11,000 carats worth of diamonds into the US. The issue doesn't go away no matter how much the industry wishes it would!
It should be on the home page of the website tomorrow so if you have any moment have a look
