SBP, I appologise if it came across that way, it isnt at all aimed at you.
My original point was that why are the soil association getting involved in politics and clouding organics with green issues. Organic is organic and I cant see how they can remove their stamp if its airlifted in but stuff that comes in on a boat isnt.
You are a consumer of organic foods but this will mean that some foods you may have bought now wont as they in theory at any rate wont be organic (but they are).
I am also interested in seeing how people relate organic produce to greenness, as I personally cannot see how organic food flow in is green, but then as you rightly say neither is loading crops with lots of sprays.
Your point about countries not stoping importing food in if we stoped buying organic, yes they would to a large extent as the organic price premium would be gone.
Finally my being a moderator in no way prevents me from entering into debates. I merely reponded to your replies. |
