Talk:Organic movement

message: Since the "organic" movement does not have an exclusive means to sustainability, also a goal of conventional agriculture, the first statement needed to be re-worded. --Zeamays 15:05, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: neutrality disputed

message: In describing the Organic Movement, this article is quite outdated.  While organic growing was initially primarily (if not solely) about growing without synthetics, the Organic Movement is now a much broader social/political movement.  Originally it was aimed at avoiding possibly unhealthful synthetic substances, but it now incorporates philosophies of sustainability, social justice, global equality and even anti-technology attitudes in general.
As an example of the anti-technology attitude, when hydroponic growers in Australia attempted to gain Organic certification for their produce - which was grown in accordance with all of the organic standards of the time - the Australian certified body changed the definition of Organic to only include food grown "in soil" and then refusted certification based on the new definition.
The mondern incarnation of this movement need to be given due weight in this article. LowKey (talk) 02:39, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Article is Outdated 

message: I've moved the following section to the talk page because it currently contains only one entry, from the late 2007s about a legal precedent. Though the section is cited, having it as the only person mentioned in the section is undue weight, and it is unclear of the impact this lawsuit has had on the overall movement. If it is to be kept in the article at all, I suggest it be reduced to a 1 sentence mention in the timeline. Dialectric (talk) 05:02, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

message: Organics have come to represent a safe house in a disturbing world where food quality and safety are constantly under siege” (Blythman). This quote is drawn from 
Blythman, J. (2005). The Trouble with Organics. Academic Search Complete, 35(6), 24-25 (http://www.theecologist.org/blogs_and_comments/commentators/other_comments/268632/the_trouble_with_organics.html), and while it could be incorporated into a larger perceptions section, the quote only addresses one of a number of perceptions of organic food. given its focus on food, the quote would be better suited to inclusion in organic food if used anywhere.Dialectric (talk) 14:43, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

message: Has anyone else heard that the origins of the natural food movement stemmed from the introduction of the idea of trying to sterilize soil with terrible heavy metals?
I believe in Germany, they tried sterilizing the soil... thinking that was a good idea... with something like arsenic.
People then woke up that this may not be a good idea and maybe we should eat food the way it was traditionally grown.
Can anyone find a reference regarding this? 24.254.15.93 (talk) 20:33, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
