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

Carrying a load of leather candelabras in his suitcase, Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop just got back from Mumbai, India. In the slums of the city, he worked with 15 craftswomen in creating signature leather interior accessories made of leftover leather from furniture industry by makers in Mumbai. In his Amsterdam studio, he is now putting a final touch to the prototypes of his ‘tailored candelabra’. The pressure is on, because in two weeks time, these new designs will be launched at the world’s leading design event, the Salone del Mobile in Milan.
