This article refers to Organic in the US. Is unfortunate it gets so much visibility. Riverford organics farms in the Uk is a good example of what can actually mean. I am happy to eat food withouth pestucides

"organic" does not mean without pesticides though.

Right, it means no synthetic pesticides.

Organic pesticides mean absolutely nothing in the realm of toxicity/environmental harm vs synthetic pesticides. Its just a chemistry distinction.

I don't disagree.
