Definitions and meanings of "Organic"

What do we mean by organic?

Of, relating to, or derived from living organisms. adjective

Of, relating to, or affecting a bodily organ. adjective

Of, marked by, or involving the use of fertilizers or pesticides that are strictly of animal or vegetable origin. adjective

Raised or conducted without the use of drugs, hormones, or synthetic chemicals. adjective

Serving organic food. adjective

Simple, healthful, and close to nature. adjective

Having properties associated with living organisms. adjective

Resembling a living organism in organization or development; interconnected. adjective

Constituting an integral part of a whole; fundamental. adjective

Denoting or relating to the fundamental or constitutional laws and precepts of a government or an organization. adjective

Of or designating carbon compounds. adjective

An organic food or a product made from organic materials. noun

A substance, especially a fertilizer or pesticide, of animal or vegetable origin. noun

An organic compound. noun

Applied to the substances which form the chemical material of the bodies of plants and animals, as also to numerous other substances of more or less analogous chemical character. But such material may or may not possess the special mechanical structure to which the term organized is applied, adapting it to the performance of the vital functions of plants or animals. The distinction between the two words is important. Organic substances may be produced from inanimate materials by laboratory processes, but organized structnre is thus far only known as a result of change in a living plant or animal.

Acting as an instrument, of nature or art, to a certain end; serving as an organ or means; instrumental.

Pertaining to or characteristic of an organ or the organs of animals and plants.

Pertaining to objects that have organs; hence, pertaining to the animal and vegetable worlds; resulting from, or exhibiting characteristics peculiar to, animal or vegetable life and structure; organized. See inorganic.

An organic compound.

An organic food.

A living organism, as opposed to a robot or hologram.

1) In chemistry, a term used to describe any molecule held together by a chain of carbon atoms. 2) Used to describe the characteristics of a living system (for example a creature's body or an entire habitat) consisting of smoothly running interacting parts and shaped by the processes of Darwinian evolution. 3) As an analogy in the creative process, used to describe a work such as a novel or movie script made in such a way that the various parts developed as they were written/painted/whatever, one from another, rather than sticking rigidly to a preconceived plan. 4) In popular culture, a term applied in line with the most rabid intentions of New Age pseudoscience, ultimately from the mouths of people who would like to have scientists burned at the stake. Much favoured by people who use chemical as an unqualified snarl word. Artificial fertilisers are decried as poison, despite the fact that they contain the same chemical compounds that plants derive from "natural" fertilisers; if these compounds were real poisons, our biosphere would have been in serious doo-doo long ago. Anything coming from a lab is allegedly ipso facto evil and foul, even if its molecular structure is identical to that of compounds found in Nature. Genetic engineering is seen as the foul left hand of Satan, based on arguments that are about as rational as those for the existence of the fellah downstairs, too. Organic farming is held by its propagandists to be the farming of the future ... and it might be, at least if the human population of the Earth drops by 99 percent. Typical stock in trade arguments from the "organic" movement, as elsewhere in the witchypoo "alternative" movement, consist of appeals to fear, to irrationality and to conspiracy theories about Big Business ... but, such has been the success of the propaganda campaign over the last few decades, nobody seems to subject "organic" produce to the same safety standards. "Organic" production requires far more acreage than conventional farming methods to produce the same yield. It is typically shilled for by celebrities, who after all often have more money than sense and can afford to buy the stuff, and much beloved of fad dieters who don't eat that much anyway. All in all, one of the movements that make one genuinely fearful for the future of our technological civilisation. Urban Dictionary

To be grown or created without the use of perservatives or any un-natural substances. Urban Dictionary

Granola eating, tree hugging, tie-dye making, hemp wearing, Berkeley native. Barely even brush their hair or shave; practice poor hygiene. Generally bare a resemblance to Tarzan, King of the Jungle. Related closely to the vegan, but a more obtuse form. Urban Dictionary

A word art teachers us a lot even about really random stuff... Urban Dictionary

Allowing something to happen naturally or run its course without manipulation. Urban Dictionary

1) Used to describe naturally occurring molecules, materials, or processes. 2) Marketing ploy to profiteer from indoctrinated hipsters by selling food at increased prices that was grown and cultivated using lower cost medieval farming methods, such as avoidance of the use of modern pesticides which kill or drive off disease breeding insects, or the use of modern fertilizers or genetic modification to make crops and livestock more resistant to disease and increase yields. 3) A Marxist assault on capitalist food production through the promotion of pseudoscience and urban legends. Urban Dictionary

1. Of, relating to, or derived from living organisms. 2. Also means foods produced without artificial chemicals, preservatives, or fertilizers. Urban Dictionary

Same old crapola, different packaging and marketing, three to six times the cost. Organic foods can also be even more harmful than regular foods because the products are never officially tested for any carcinogens or other harmful products that result from spraying with "organic" pesticides. Also, the methods of organic farming are very wasteful, since it takes quite a while for manure and compost to be absorbed by plants, and pests are allowed to eat the crop, thus causing much lower crop yields on the same amount of land, compared to modern artificial spray-and sprinkle farming methods. Urban Dictionary

Something having, holding, and showcasing the elements of amazingness; something incredible Urban Dictionary
