The article doesn’t define “organic” so here is the definition, from the American Chemical Society:
“Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. “
If the article was written exclusively for chemists, then this omission is excusable. But it wasn’t. The article was written for the general public, so the omission is irresponsible.
Hmmm…fossil fuels?
“Off with their heads!!...”
