 Algae

Summary
Oceans are teeming with algae. So is every lake, river, stream and pond. Now researchers believe this lowly, plentiful organism can become a major source of fuel and may be a key to creating a greener planet. National Research Council Canada scientists in Ketch Harbour are searching for ways to grow algae, also known as phytoplankton, on an industrial scale to produce fuel for airplanes.
