Thus, carbon dioxide could be pumped in from a power plant into the contained bacteria farm. The company could thus make money from selling carbon credits and selling fuel feedstock.<\/p>\n<p>Full story <a href=\"http:\/\/www.news.com\/greentech\/8301-11128_3-9810969-54.html\">from here<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color:red;\">Nature <span style=\"color:blue;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/ref\/oil\/or\/or.html\">gave us<\/a><\/span> oil from algae; perhaps <span style=\"color:blue;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/ref\/story\/story.html\">we should try<\/a><\/span> Nature&#8217;s way again<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are at: Oilgae Blog.
