The fairtrade pioneer, Traidcraft, has gone into administration. The company's chief executive tells us what went wrong and outlines his hopes for the brand's rescue. We examine the new technology which is promising to put an end to age-checks by staff when you're buying alcohol at supermarket self-checkouts. And can a holiday abroad ever really be green? We discuss sustainable travel options. Presenter: Winifred Robinson Producer: Jon Douglas
