		<description><![CDATA[I know you&#8217;ve gotten one of the email forwards: &#8220;It&#8217;s the end of the world! Organic farmers will all go to prison!

		<description><![CDATA[Remember the USDA Organic Standards debacle? (Summary: the USDA took over the organic &#8220;brand&#8221; and made it easier for industrial agriculture to make money on it.) Guess what? They&#8217;re after the word &#8220;natural&#8221; this time.
