"I want to start off by saying that this column is not about whether organic agriculture is worth supporting for its environmental benefits (I think it is) or whether we as a society should care about the chemicals found in our foods and household products (I think we should)."

To me, buying organic is not just about ME or MY KID. It's about EVERYBODY's air, water, kids, pets, and wildlife in my generation and for generations to come. That alone is reason enough to make an effort to buy sustainably-raised food.
