As a real estate agent in Minneapolis, I see a lot of people using a product in luxury homes that is very destructive in a number of ways. It may also be contributing to the changes in the environment. Check out this post, please:<BR/><BR/>Brazilian Teak Hardwood Floors, Slave Labor, 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. I feel sort of ill every time I walk into a home that has Brazilian teak floors.<BR/><BR/>Thank you!kermitjohnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15668550095084754901noreply@blogger.com
