 Trigger Issues - Diamonds
Bling, Sharon Stone, romance and blood all are linked by diamonds. While sparkling innocently in a footballer's ear, they fund some of the worst fighting in Africa. Diamonds are not rare and they have been mined by virtual slave labour, so why are they so expensive? In Trigger Issues the murky world of the brilliant gems is exposed.

 Trigger Issues - Football
From millionaires to children making footballs in sweatshops - find out the truth behind the headlines. Kicking a football and becoming a Pele - a Brazilian favela kid's dream. And the footballs made with child labour in Pakistan play a part in big money for backers like Berlusconi and Abramovich. Sweatshops and economic distortion mean that Vietnam exports more Nike goods than coffee. Then there are the celebrity footballer players with their skills and zillions.
Trigger Issues Football is already being asked for, and best of all its by boys who are very hard to motivate and get reading 'good' books. Many thanks. Ruan Peat, Wick High School

 Trigger Issues - Kalashnikov AK 47
Vodka, chess, hip-hop and child soldiers...all these are linked by the Kalashnikov, the iconic but deadly Russian rifle. Some 90 million of these guns exist - and they do not die when their owners do. Trigger Issues - Kalashnikov explains the arms trade, politics and culture through the grimly fascinating lens of the world's deadliest weapon.

 Trigger Issues - Mosquito
Fever, the Panama Canal, poetry and Roman emperors...all are linked by the mosquito. For some its bite brings deadly disease, for others it is a work of art. Trigger Issues - Mosquito explores how its 2,500 species have invaded not only bodies but culture too: every language acknowledges its fearsome reputation and pays a grudging respect to the tiny terror.

 Trigger Issues - T-shirt
The ultimate fashion statement also has a darker side. Today, they offer everything: branding, colours, easy gifts, easycare, fashion statement... you can decide what suits you. But too many are produced by sweatshop labour, from cotton doused with pesticides that kills people and the environment. Now, the trade justice movement seeks fair trade for cotton producers - a new slogan for today's T-shirt.
