Having spent last evening poring over the on-line text of the draft
federal organic standards with an organic inspector, I came in this
morning with notes of issues to raise in this here SANET cafe.
I also came in this a.m. to a note from Craig Cramer about something
else, with a mention that there is an organic certification list
server that Larry London moderates.
Question: Are we-all going to talk about standards here? Or should
I assume that the action for that is on that cert group, and save my
comments for that? I feel like it makes sense to have some SANETter
group consensus about it. Any thoughts?
Part of me feels like I'd like to listen in on the organic cert
folks' thoughts...while part of me feels like some discussion of it
here would be good as a general sustag topic. From my perspective,
certification at the federal level brings up issues that aren't just
about organics or about certification but are about the future of
sustag in a market economy that would by the nature of its physics
usurp and dilute it.
Can someone send me sub info pronto and copy it to the group? I've
asked Cramer for enough this semester. :^)
