A new start-up company thinks it has the answer to the biomass fuel problem: use pollution to feed algae and use the algae to make biodiesel. Check out this page from ZDNet.
What's your take? On the surface, it sounds good. Here in Costa Rica algae accumulates everywhere very quickly. It is often a big nuisance to homeowners and farmers. Hmmmm!

About Me
- Chi
- I live on the Pacific slopes of the Talamanca mountain range in southern Costa Rica. My adult children live in the United States. I have a Masters Degree in Gerontology but have worked as a migrant laborer, chicken egg collector, radio broadcaster, secretary, social worker, research director, bureaucrat, writer, editor, political organizer, publicist, telephone operator, and more. My hobby of photography has garnered some awards.
