Actually, many "organic" methods can be as effective, and sometimes moreso, than the chemical methods they replace. In fruit orchards for instance, they used to have to spray insecticides for certain pests, where now pheromone mating disruption (insect porn!) does the job cheaper and better, without introducing harmful chemicals into the environment.
The problem is when people disregard science because it's findings are "natural" or not. What matters is what is effective and safe, and it can go both ways.
