Takes a LOT of energy to dry and process the algae.

Doesn't pass the Liberal idea of NOT using fuels that "ultimately produce more greenhouse gas emissions than would traditional petroleum"

Missouri University is working on a way to grow algae in abandoned mines. Great concept. I have been really impressed by what they delve into.
