The very first fair-trade coffee was an effort to import a Guatemalan coffee into Europe as Indio Solidarity Coffee. Since the founding of organizations such as the European Fair Trade Association (1987), the production and consumption of fair trade coffee has grown as some local and national coffee chains started to offer fair trade alternatives.
Unfortunately, the state of Nebraska is yet to approve any medical marijuana laws. A medical marijuana initiative to amend the stateâs constitution to legalize marijuana for patients with debilitating medical conditions failed to acquire the necessary signatures to make the November 2016 ballot.
If the statewide vote passes next year, Missouri would become the 24th state to legalize medical marijuana. California was the first state to legalize medical marijuana in 1996, and others states, such as Alaska, Colorado, Oregon and Washington, have gone on to legalize cannabis entirely.
