Algae Biofuel Becoming a Reality?(thanks to avngrdnpriestes for posting this first)

Written by Bentley on April 3rd, 2008
I’ve written about algae biofuel a number of times before (see links at the end) and it is definitely a topic that really interests me. I’ll be honest, the idea of growing crops - that could be used for something else - on prime agricultural land for the purpose of making fuel just seems a little out of whack to me.

Ideas like cellulosic and algae biofuel on the other hand just seem to make sense. I think the algae technology in particular holds a special appeal for me due to my background in aquatic biology. I have spent a great many hours with my eyes glued to a microscope, staring at all sorts of algal species, and have always found them to be fascinating organisms - but I certainly never imagined that they could offer so much potential!
