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

A team of scientists from the Japan-based Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute just announced they have “successfully developed the first allergy-free cedar tree by altering the DNA makeup of the plant”. While this may be great news for allergy sufferers, the pollen-less ‘frankentrees’ have raised concerns over their impact on the environment.
