Algae can be used to supplement many of our existing energy needs today. We have even made an algae jet fuel out of the dry biomass.

With 3/4 of the world covered in water, algae derived biodiesel makes the most practical sense for converting energy from the sun into energy to power our aircraft and heavy trucks. Depending on how competitive the price can become, it may replace all fossil fuel sources of energy known today. Yes, it could even replace coal burning power plants if scaled up enough and reduced enough in price. And that would be world transforming. Keep us posted on the progress of this most promising technology.

Military jets kill. Some commercial jets are acceptable, b/c they bring families together. I don’t like military jets.
