Terra Preta Soils Technology To Master the Carbon Cycle
More About Wonderful Algae
I love how algae can be used for almost anything. If the future is covered in algae, well, I’ll be the first to say that that’s a good thing.
Inhabitat has a post about how algae is being converted into crude biofuel.
The scientists involved in the LiveFuels project are focusing on specialized aspects of the algae-to-biocrude [...]
More Efficient Jet Travel
Princeton University is looking into the details of using biofuels in jet airplanes. The research team will examine what fuel mixture provides the best efficiency and how engines can be designed to better burn the fuels that they are bound to create.
Alternative energy sources, if designed appropriately, also could significantly reduce the amount of greenhouse [...]
Negative Carbon Output
Terra preta is apparently wonderful and will help us fight climate change. World Changing has a great post about the human made fertilizer that will probably answer all your questions about terra preta.
Because terra preta locks so much carbon in the soil, it’s also a form of carbon sequestration that doesn’t involve bizarre heroics [...]
Algae is Gooey Power
I’m always impressed by what algae can do. It can be used to generate electricity, make us healthier, it can function as a biofuel, and can be used to clean the air. Algae can almost solve all the worlds problems!
Some enterprising researchers have found out that algae can also be tweaked to [...]
New York to Power Buildings Using Renewable Energy
Mayor Bloomberg shows no sign of slowing down his drive to reduce New York City’s carbon emissions, which is of course a good thing. He’s now set to announce that municipal buildings in NYC will switch to solar power and move from dirty regular oil to a less-damaging biodiesel. Other mayors (and North American federal [...]
