1/10th of land in New Mexico can produce enough energy for the entire country

This is a very interesting video. This is a working pilot plant producing biofuel 10,000 times more efficiently and far less expensively than Bush's corn fiasco that is now starving the world and doing nothing to help our energy needs.

  • Why is Obama acting like a pawn for the oil companies when there are viable alternatives for cheap clean energy.

    This bio-fuel clip demonstrates that American ingenuity can surmount almost any of our problems if the politicians wold just get out of the way.

  • It is up to each of us to hold the politicians accountable for their decisions. This video demonstrates that the US can become a CAN DO nation. I think we need to submit emails to Obama for him to watch this video.

    I am beyond tired of listening to all the REASONS WHY WE CANNOT. I will NOT live my life this way.

    I am sending this link to Governor of CA, both Senators, Speaker Pelosi, Obama, and House Rep Mike Thompson.

    Let's take back our nation.

  • Say one started a private not for profit entity to buy as much land in New Mexico as possible and install algae farms there. Would it be possible to treat the donors like stockholders, any profit made goes back into the entity and stockholders get to write off the profits as a donation; Then funnel all profits back into the entity and buy more land/panels/farms?

  • With our big-oil controlled congress determined to destroy our planet. We have to be just as determined to provide alternatives like this. I ask you all to pass this crucial information on. Take control. K.

  • This is fantastic! Now we just have to put the flame under entrenched, monolithic oil interests to get on board or move out of the way.

  • American ingenuity can solve the climate crisis! We need more people like this group who are capable and willing to lead the way.

  • This is fantastic! I'm so excited about this technology!

  • haha, i like how the bags the alge is in are probably made of petroleum based plastic.

  • Every day I become more convinced that those who oppose ingenious technology like this are driven not by pragmatism, but by ideological imperatives to resist environmentally-friendly innovations.

  • I would like to point out that the above technology can utilize otherwise useless arid lands even desert land.

    Unlike grain based or pond based bio fuel technologies, this technology is a good fit for the vast arid lands of California, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Texas and Arizona as well as New Mexico

  • If the governors of the southwestern states got together they could become energy independent within two years using state owned scrub land.

    The process of extracting biofuel is simple and cheap. There is no reason why this process could not produce fuel at less than a dollar a gallon. After all the system uses large baggies and pond scum. I should thing every owner of under producing land in the southwest would not jump at this simple low labor biofuel technology.

    20,000 gallons of biofuel per acre at even $2 a gallon would be a wonderful cash crop.

    Please write your representatives to make this happen for America.

  • i'm a little skeptical because it's a company video and obviously they are very optimistic about their technology since they constantly need more VC/PE dollars to support them, but it looks like progress is being made in this field, which i'm all for.

    it'd be nice if there was a way for people to create their own fuel/energy from algae rather than one corporation controlling it all and having to distribute it through the same wasteful systems we already have.

    what we really need is distributed energy, whether its sun wind or bio based.

  • I am going to send this clip to every Governor I can find on the internet.

    I wish more people would become active and perhaps together we can overcome the special interests and save ourselves.

  • photo-bio reactor? wow. We all need to find out if this guy is for real. Please send this to every scientist/energy engineer that you can... and if holds up... lets annex New Mexico (they're just growing peryote buttons there anyway (see #36) and grow ALGAE! But, first we all need to hear from some other on this... let's keep it alive!

  • know why this won't work? because major corporations won't be able to solidify control over this as it can be done anywhere.

    good luck guys, it's a great idea
