"SD-CAB" could turn the oil industry "green" with envy

Posted April 29th, 2009 by Charles Langley

In what is perhaps the most exciting energy development of 2009, UCSD is coordinating a multi-agency effort to develop substitutes for gasoline, diesel and ethanol at a cost of as little as $2 a gallon. In fact, this research is so powerful - so exciting - and so deserving of your support that I'm reluctant to write another word about this.  JUST GO THERE NOW. In terms of national security, global wealth, and historical importance, this urgent research may be the most important scientific effort since the Manhattan Project ... and it all revolves around using San Diego's sunshine and abundantly available brackish water supplies to grow algae -- one of the most basic life forms on the planet. Best of all, Algae is literally a "green" fuel that does far less damage to the environment than hydrocarbons derived from oil or coal.

If you are concerned about breaking America's growing dependency on environmentally toxic imported oil from countries that loathe us, then VISIT SD-CAB, the San Diego Center for Algae Biotechnology, NOW.

Algae

This is pure providence researching algae for fuel. It is very cost effective and it will work. My money goes to this effort; however I understand that the agency involved in this project have no worries for lack of funds; they have a multi billion dollar backing from various sources.
