		<description>Unfortunately, the Kimberly Process voted to continue to certify Zimbabwe diamonds as &quot;conflict-free&quot; despite the atrocities associated with them.

Stop these practices by demanding the diamonds you purchase are truly ethically sourced. I work at Brilliant Earth - we specialize in ethical origin fine jewelry. We trace the diamonds every step of the way to ensure they are harvested, cut, and polished with fair labor and eco-friendly practices.</description>

		<description>I have long been against diamonds and through talking with friends, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kateandneil.com/73/anti-diamond-poster-now-available/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;making posters&lt;/a&gt;, writing essays, and doing a little research many of my friends and acquaintances have refused to by diamonds. So yes talking about it can make a difference, at least 4 of my recently married friends are diamond free because of me. 

P.S. I recently got married and bought my wife an antique garnet and she loves it.</description>

		<description>To help fix this problem simply do not buy diamonds. Donate your money that otherwise you would have spend on a diamond to help these people have a better life.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s a site with an alternative.  http://www.asgreenasitgets.org/jade.html.  Independent Guatemalans mine their own jade and turn it into engagement rings and such.  Sure beats the alternatives.</description>
