“Organic” always presents interest – the method to combine caring approach to nature with efficient healthy production requires deep knowledge, additional research and has philosophical ambition.
First organic products appeared in Norway in 1930s with biodynamic farming, but grew essential in 1970s, simultaneously with development in society of environmental thinking. The Debio is an authority that certifies organic products for Norwegian market and harmonize national standards with European ones.
Norway follows strict policies emphasized on environment protection, restoration and preserving of biodiversity. Environmental Information Act (May 9th, 2003) stipulates public and private participation in decision-making process relating to the Environment. The State encourages natural and non-harmful production, establish heavy taxes on pollution and persuade use of alternative energy sources.
Despite of hard climate conditions, Norway has successes in development of environmental thinking and have a mutual agreement in society to expand it further. The more society choose to live healthy and protect environment, the more use and need to strengthen and transfer knowledge and to develop new methods requires. Moreover, the society must admit that “organic” cannot be competitive massive production, it goes only together with understanding that the less but healthier is good.
In this meaning, solid education, based on environmental thinking, is essential pillar to create knowledge, skills, culture and special value in society that consolidate economy and change the life. The challenge requires strong innovative development — a bridge between key-elements, and, as a final stage – economical transformations.
