Organic Under Attack

In the final hours of developing the spending bill, House Speaker J. Dennis
Hastert inserted a provision that would allow livestock producers to label
their meat, milk, and eggs as organic, even if they were not fed organic
feed as is mandated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Organic
Standards. According to the NY Times, Fiedale Farms, a Georgia chicken
processing company had asked for the provision. Despite the fact that
over $10 billion of organic business a year is following the National
Organic Standards, one company that can't follow the rules, has threatened
to weaken the standards for all!
In response to the threat, legislation to remove the wording from the
spending bill has been introduced. We urge you to help protect the integrity
of Organic. Click

REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE! Stonyfield Farm is constantly working at
improving our solid waste practices and decreasing the amount of
waste we create at our plant. Last year, we set a goal to reuse
or recycle 60% of the solid waste generated at our New Hampshire
facility. The results are in, and we met and exceeded our goal!
Not only are we keeping waste out of landfill and incinerators,
but we are also saving money! Read

minimization?)

Folks who
do a lot of Phone, Internet, FAX or writing work are finding it appealing
to work from home one day a week or every two weeks. And rightfully
so! If you commute 30 miles a day, by telecommuting one day per week,
you could save about $100 in gas and prevent 1,176 pounds of CO2 from
warming the earth annually. Click

Love
"Letters"
Each month, we like to share an email from one of our yogurt lovers. Keep
the fan mail coming!
"Hi! Think I might buy YoBaby and try it out on my birds since
they are my babies! My parrot, Pierre, loves the blueberry yogurt very
much also. Yet peach is another favorite. Don't think he is too fusy.
Recently saw my cockatiel Betsy take a taste when Pierre was not around
and I think she likes it too, the YoSelf Strawberry and Banana. Pierre
and Betsy send their regards! : - ) "

Overheard in our "Healthy Planet" forums:
"My fiancee's family has a solar house and they have not turned
on the electric heat in years. They do burn about 3/4 or a cord of wood
per year but the rest is all solar. What a great way to go!"
