BendiNewsTest: Climate Change Could Cripple American Corn Industry, New Report

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

The report, put together by Ceres shows that recent extreme weather events like the Midwest drought of 2012 that drove corn prices to a record high offer a taste of what is predicted to become the new normal in may parts of the Corn Belt in years to come.
