A sidenote: organic does not necessarily reflect sustainability but a product can be produced and marketed more sustainable and efficiently than another brand. In addition, there can never be 100% sustainable use of energy because that would defy the law of entropy, or the second law of thermodynamics. From the WSJ.com:
