Meg & Shell in front of Parliament House |
- 365 million loaves of bread (that’s one million loaves a day)
- 62.5 million packets of pasta
- 144 million bottle of beer
- 5.4 million packs of muesli
- 8 million litres of sunflower oil
- 58 million boxes of cornflakes
- 276 million pairs of jeans
- 5.5 billion pairs of socks
- 886 million bath towels
- Along with 233,000 tonnes to sorghum to feed cattle, pigs & chickens
Unfortunately all of this production is at risk due to coal mining & coal seam gas projects in the area.
