Its a great idea and Carter was pushing it in the early 70s. For that he was called a *****. If not for profit motives it would have replaced crude long ago. Twisted world running for a wall with a pocket full of cash.....

eagle -- This bio-fuel process looks real good, using bio-waste to feed the algae. Make everything from salad oil to jet fuel.

Backers,

Algae fuel startup Solazyme already had a long list of backers — from Chevron’s VC arm to Morgan Stanley — having raised over $125 million throughout its seven years of existence. But this week, the company says it’s added two more high-profile names: investor Richard Branson (Virgin) and food and personal product giant Unilever. And the US Navy is buying 150,000 barrels of algae fuel for testing.

its a great idea just should have been done 40 years ago !

Dude that rocks!!!

Looks very promising..that is if the big 3 or 4 doesn't interject...if you know what I mean..Later..

I think we will some disruptive "progress" despite big oil

Its seems to be the rage but putting it into full production will take time besides the undertow as in we're making so much cash already !
