He felt that way 20 years ago. He feels that way today. Cooksey is one of many U.S. scientists who studied the feasibility of turning algal oil into biodiesel in the 1980s. The U.S. Department of Energy, through its Aquatics Species program, funded their research. Cooksey&#8217;s lab made a number of discoveries. Funding dried up, however, and the scientists went on to other things. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.legpain.guide\/g\/144\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Knee pain<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Full story <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilandgasonline.com\/content\/news\/article.asp?docid=cc4d249e-9a58-4836-b23c-62329ae6f548&amp;atc%7Ec=771+s=773+r=001+l=a&amp;VNETCOOKIE=NO\">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.
