Re: [compost_tea] International Compost Tea Council



Hello All,

Right on Bill! It is too easy to turn over our voice to a "representative group" that cannot truly represent each individual. We do that quite nicely here in this forum.

Hi,
 The concept of paying to belong to something where I do not have a clear path for my voice is of concern, I see nothing on the site or in the index of things to come relating to how and with what authority this group will represent the international views of compost tea users. 
purpose 1;
To provide a unified voice that represents the best interests of the compost tea industry and ensures its safe and successful continuation.
 
To provide a unified voice their needs to be a clearly visible path for views and debate then decision making-- the site tells me about membership fees and benefits (????) none of which relate to a path of unified voice.
 
I suggest the current discussion group has a clear and strong INTERNATIONAL VOICE and the work last year on the NOP made this clear and strong.
 
The true strength of a fledging industry is often its many voices not its single voice especially when it has a considerable foe.
 
International??--visit the site and count the nations named?
                     Take alook at this group and count the nations on any given day?
 
The second paragraph of the vision is again being met here .
 
I AM NOT WISHING TO POUR COLD WATER ON THIS PROJECT---
 
I BELIEVE WE JUST NEED A GREAT DEAL OF CLARITY ON WHO IS CLAIMING THE RIGHT TO SPEAK ON OUR BEHALF --HAVE US PAY FOR IT-- WHEN WE ARE SMALL AND DIVERSE.
 
the TERMS INCORPORATED AND COUNCIL NORMALLY COME WITH RULES AND REGULATIONS--CAN WE SEE SOME?
 
REGARDS
