BendiNewsTest: Air pollution levels in the Middle East drastically affected by years of conflict

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

High resolution satellites have been collecting data from major cities since 2005 and the results have flown in the face of previous predictions of the region’s rates of emissions.
