So no one is disputing the point of the article in post #1 or the harmful consequences?

We already know that we can put algae greenhouses next to traditional electricity power plants and reduce the carbon / greenhouse gas emissions from those plants. The algae then produces biofuel for vehicles. So why are we not jump starting this new breakthrough? Biofuel is harvested DAILY from algae and they are improving the design of the algae greenhouses. The first generation looked like a large zig zagging plastic tube with green ooze growing inside. The new design looks like huge venetian blinds inside of plastic encapsulation with each slat in the blinds producing a green ooze.

I have read about the problems at Yucca Mountain being an earthquake fault and the locals not wanting all the country's waste being trucked into the waste site.
