There are always people wanting whatever it is we don't have. Oil is what we
use now! If there is something to squeezing oil out of algae, by all means
look into it, but we can't wait until any of these cockamamy ideas works to
move forward. Idealism is great, but we live in the real world where our
enemies control a major resource we need.
By looking at us as selfish in using the oil now, you are, in many ways
admitting you don't have confidence in the production of alternatives in years
down the road. Our grand children will not be using oil like we do. If we can
get the governments out of the way with their insistence on unworkable ideas
like ethonol, there will be functional alternatives. There are too many
competing interests when the govt gets involved for them to look objectively at
giving us the energy we need.
