BendiNewsTest: Australia’s Proposal to Strip Rainforest of Heritage Status is Rejected by the UN

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

Australia’s Proposal to Strip Rainforest of Heritage Status is Rejected by the UN

Environmentalists everywhere (not to mention the planet itself) must be giving a huge sigh of relief today, because the UN has rejected a bid by Australia to revoke the heritage status of Tasmania’s rainforest. Australia wants to start logging in one of the last temperate rain forests on the planet, known as the Tasmanian Wilderness, which was added to the World Heritage List over 30 years ago. But the UN, after hearing arguments from both sides, unanimously decided to protect the fragile ecosystem.
