Algae: The New Oil

By investing in renewable energy in the United States, we will reduce our dependence on foreign oil, become energy independent and create new green jobs – and algae is one solution that takes care of all three! We need to add the most practical renewable jobs, here in America, so we can replace the oil and gas we import from places like the Middle East and Venezuela with clean, renewable, American power. A nation that doesn’t depend on others for a vital commodity is a strong country. And tha

This biofuel, Algae oil, offers success as best alternative source of power. It provides the basis for other biofuels as well as being effective in itself. It has the advantage by being able to be used directly in diesel engines, it is biodegradable, it can be used to filter exhaust gases and extract CO2 by photosynthesis.

Power Sources 2

The imagination of scientists throughout time must have toyed with the idea of using the rising and falling of the tides to generate power that could be harnessed. Claimed as the world’s first commercial-scale tidal stream turbine it was installed in Northern Ireland and believed to produce clean energy, is noiseless, runs beneath the surface and has zero emissions. Other technical advances proceed as we seek alternative sources of fuel.

Antarctica Reveals Bacteria Existing Under Ice

Antarctic exploration delving deep below an Antarctic glacier have discovered bacteria that has existed or believed to have existed, for millions of years in an ecosystem dominated by cold, salty water.

Cultural Diversity in Greeting

We anticipate that there will be many bridges to cross in blending human cultures of the world if, indeed, in the future we choose to strive for a ‘one world’ of perfect harmony and understanding between all peoples of the world. It is dubious, however, whether we would wish to create a sameness and discard the natural diversity of human expression.

Beauty by Design
