Skepticism, Science & Pseudoscience

Exactly what I thought would be more helpful...though it needs a lot of culling.

As stated within some of them, it is unclear if the organic pesticides are unsafe...as compared to the inorganic ones conventionally used. We also don't know who is using it. As I stated upthread, Big Farm is moving into the lucrative organic market. I suspect you would find them advocating for looser organic standards. I recall a fight over this in Oregon last year.

That debate, and the noise it creates, is no reason to give up reason and honorably sift through the data

One of the articles cited varied benefits of organic farming. That's what my interest in it is, mostly. Less chemicals hitting the environment, less water, less fuel...it doesn't always work well...but people are trying to earn how to grow while having the least impact. That's a good thing.
