If we can't dig it up out of the ground and sell it - we got nothing.
China is no longer taking our rubbish and Australia is ready to drown in a sea of rubbish because we are too stupid to process our waste!!!
We can't even organise a low level waste facility to process our rubbish. How sad is that? We rely on China to do everything and when they say no - we freeze up.
Processsing our own waste is not like manufacturing motherboards or other computer parts. Even Logan Council had a waste management facility until it sold off the good parts to private enterprise and packed the rest off to China.
Maybe if we had to do our own processing we might be able to use some of the products to start our own manufactruing business using the products supplied by the waste!! Small steps.
But wait - here come the unions to make sure the workers get overpaid and over generous conditions - and another failed industry model goes back to China. Unions keeping us at the bottom of the food chain - again as usual.

never mind about waste... 90% of graveyard headstones are imported from quarries in China... although most are polished products

You would thinkwe have plenty of rocks and stones here in Australia
Muahaha
