 The Thoroughbred Breeders of The Hunter Valley have taken up the battle against the ever-encroaching, never-enough, land-and-water-grab industry that is coal mining as currently practiced in NSW. During 2010 and beyond, they will be educating the NSW government about the significant contribution the race horse industry makes to the NSW economy. For example, employing 65,000 people and that regional areas generate over 40% of the industry's $5 billion contribution to Australian GDP. This industry is also now under threat from over-expansion of mining. We offer our support. For more details see here or their website: http://www.htba.com.au/protectourindustries . |
