Sustainable and Ethical Coconut Products, Erasing Poverty!

Niulife creates ethical and sustainable coconut oil products. Here is one of their blogs from 2016 which really caught my attention: "What if we could go back and leapfrog the industrial era? Go straight from hunter-gatherers, agrarian, pre-industrial societies to green, sustainable, organic, technologically savvy, medically advanced and civilized, an interconnected, socially aware and just global village? No green-house gases, no plagues, wars, hunger, environmental degradation, social unrest and injustice? The funny answer to this incredible proposition is that in the poorest, most undeveloped and marginalized countries of the world… this opportunity exists. The advance of solar power in these countries is a good example of how it is happening. And it is happening – with hiccups and challenges – in little, forgotten, gob-smackingly beautiful, pristine, wild places like the Solomon Islands in the Pacific. Here you will find thatched huts with solar power. Native people fishing by hand – with a mobile phone and GPS. Generators running on biofuel grown locally. Self-sufficiency is not a new trend, it’s an ancient tradition. Organic what? It’s always been organic. Wild harvest? That’s not exotic here. Everything is wildly growing in abundance or caught fresh from sea and shore. In a world of industrialism, capitalism and materialism, systems, processes and multi-national corporations, places exist where our ways and our world are a very, very remote and strange concept. But they are faltering… and just like “No Man is an Island” no island is separate from the influence of the juggernaut of human development."
