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

As populations increase and urbanization intensifies, our water and ecosystems are at risk. Today IBM announced a project that will introduce first-in-Canada technology that uses big data to help protect our drinking water, predict floods and safeguard fragile ecosystems. Built in collaboration with the Southern Ontario Water Consortium (SOWC), the new data management platform is installed along the Grand River, the largest river in southern Ontario, and will collect and analyze data every 15 minutes from 120 sensors over 80 square kilometers.
