School Food Campaign: "We eat 4.5 lt of pesticides/herbicides per
year!"
Local mum and award-winning permaculture teacher, Leonie
Shanahan, is fed up ('scuse the pun) with the quality of food in
Queensland schools, and has inspired Nicklin MP, Peter Wellington
to take the matter to Parliament.
"Is anybody listening? How sick do our children have to become
before parents, governments and multi nationals do something
about it? We ingest approx 4.5 litres of pesticides &
herbicides a year, 2 kg of addictives, 66 kgs of
sugar....."
