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

Sitting is the new smoking, so creating a sturdy but low-cost standing desk has become one of the most popular challenges for designers everywhere–and two MIT graduate students have just unveiled one of the most attractive contenders yet. Using a CNC router, students David Yamnitsky and Isabella Tromba created the Press Fit Standing Desk, a desk cut from locally grown maple plywood that can be assembled like a jigsaw puzzle in just a few seconds. To bring the $200 Press Fit to market, Yamnitsky and Tromba launched a Kickstarter campaign that surged past its initial $10,000 goal in less than a day.
