Boycott Queensland products - excellent idea John! And why we're at it,
should we stop buying Australian grown rice as and cotton as they are among
the biggest water-wasting products, contributing to rising salinity levels
in the Murray Darling Basin? That raises the question, though, is there
anywhere where those products are grown sustainably? I.e. 3rd-world
countries must have chopped down rainforests and/or drained estuaries to
grow rice and cotton.
Stuck between a rock & a hard place!
