USDA Proposed Organic Standards -Organic farmers nervous about proposed regulations -Seattle Times -1/1/98 -Organic Trade Association Organic Trade Association Concerned That Standards May Not Be Strict Enough  -USDA AMS National Organic Program Proposed Rule Home Page -send a comment to the  National Organic Program (NOP) regarding the proposed rule.  -Write Your Representative This service is provided to assist you in contacting your elected Representative.  -USDA unveils national regulations on organic foods -Boston Globe / AP -12/16 -Wild Oats Market Genetic Engineering Information USDA New Organic Food Standards Announced Monday, 12/15/97 -Genetic Engineering & Factory Farming News  (12/13/97 Pure Food Campaign Proposed Regulations -Land could have no chemical pesticides applied on it for at least three years before harvest of an organic crop. -Crop pests, weeds and disease would be mainly controlled through prevention or through biological methods such as  wasps that kill harmful insects.  -Animals could not be given hormones or antibiotics to stimulate growth. Animals  would be fed organic feeds. -Products must contain at least 95 percent organic ingredients to be labeled as  organic.

It is my belief that the 'Rights 
of Animals', respect for 'Mother Earth',
and eating a 'healthy plant-based diet' 
are all inter-related in helping solve 
the health and environmental problems 
for our planet and for us as individuals. 

I hope this page and the other pages at 
Marcus' Place will help in your search 
for information on these important issues.
