As a real estate agent in Minneapolis, I see a lot of people using a product in luxury homes that is very destructive to rainforests, and causes untold human suffering. Check out this post, please:<br/><br/>Brazilian Teak, Slave Labor, Luxury Homes, and the Destruction of the Rainforest.<br/><br/>You can find this post at:<br/>http://www.realestatetwincities.net/brazilian-hardwood-floors-can-you-say-slave-labor/<br/><br/>I realize I made this url too long. If it got cut off in the comment form, you can easily find it at:<br/>http://www.realestatetwincities.net/blog/<br/><br/><br/>Anything you can do to share this link or help promote awareness of this issue will be greatly appreciated. Most luxury home owners in Minnesota are unaware of the environmental and human cost of these products. Most Brazilian teak found in Minneapolis homes did not come from legal sources. I feel sort of ill every time I walk into a home that has Brazilian teak floors. Thank you for taking part in Blog Action Day.
