Hi,
This page is currently being developed. This page checks Sustainability Blogs and RSS News Feeds for new content and posts it to here each day. The aim is to share information related to sustainability which is relevant to people living in Central Victoria while also providing a channel for international sustainability information. I am just discovering the Internets information sharing potential. I'd like to help other not so tech savvy people learn how to find interesting and new Sustainability info. Please tell me your favorite blogs or news sources and I will add them to the list.
Thanks

According to a report released by public sector management consulting firm Harvey Rose, between 950 and 1,960 units in San Francisco have been effectively removed from the housing market by hosts like AirBnB and VRBO, which are renting out entire units for more than 58 days. This number represents up to 23.2 percent of the city’s vacant units, causing a public debate on how to regulate short-term renting websites which are, reportedly, pushing people out of their neighborhoods and causing an increase in evictions.
