Algae have the potential to help humanity deal with the twin crises of depleting oil supplies and global warming. You can learn how in this ebook.
Here is just a glimpse of what you will learn by reading this ebook.
The First Algae
The story of the first algae is an amazing tale of death and resurrection. Algae didn't only create the oxygen we all breathe, by doing so, they almost destroyed all life on Earth.
Modern Algae
Algae are amazingly diverse.
- Some algae can live in water that is almost boiling hot, while others thrive in arctic glaciers
- While algae are needed for life to exist, some algae can cause plagues of biblical proportions.
- Some algae can even survive in the cold vacuum of space.
Humans and Algae
Algae are our greatest allies in the fight against global warming because algae use Carbon Dioxide to grow. When algae die, the Carbon can sink to the bottom of the sea reversing some of the effects of human pollution.
The future of Algae
Algae may be the most important living things on the planet, but human beings are just now learning how to farm them on a large scale. Once we can create farms of algae, algae could replace petroleum as a source of liquid fuel, enabling us to heat our homes, and power our cars while at the same time starting to heal the planet.
