Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 REPOSTING NewsTarget Insider Alert (_www.NewsTarget.com_ (http://www.newstarget.com/) ) newsletter __ Dear NewsTarget readers, (http://www.newstarget.com/021875.html) Do you believe that dairy products labeled as " organic " should be truly organic? So do the Organic Consumers Association and Cornucopia Institute, which have launched a wave of class action lawsuits against the Aurora Organic Dairy Corporation, accusing Aurora of fraudulently selling non-organic milk as " organic. " It wasn't long ago that Aurora threatened to sue the OCA to try to stop Ronnie Cummins from characterizing Aurora's milk as anything other than purely organic. Ronnie refused to back down, and now the legal battle is on! Today's feature story brings you the latest in this battle over the definition of organic milk. (A battle in which the USDA has already surrendered to corporate interests, by the way... read the story for full details...) Speaking of milk, today we also bring you a report on the link between dairy consumption and cancer, plus a story about a new alternative to dairy products: Hemp milk! A fourth story discusses organics in light of ethics, and a final story reports on the fuel efficiency of Boeing's new passenger jet.
