Algae Farming

At the state that the US is currently in, we need an oil alternative, which is both economically friendly, and environmentally friendly. Algae farming tends to fall in both of these categories; what’s more, it is also efficient. For three very important rationales, I stand in a strong affirmation for this bill, in which we will fund algae farming. First off, Algae farming can be farmed realistically anywhere. There are very few requirements for algae biofuel. All biofuels that are created from land plants have specific soil-quality requirements. Often, when the soil in an area does not meet the specific nutrient requirements, that plant cannot be built and used to produce the biofuel in that area. However, this is not the case for algae biofuel. Algae biofuel is farmed in the water of any quality type, which is in many of the US states. Because it is not farmed in the soil, it is not limited because of the soil eminence. Thus, algae farming is not limited to certain areas, it can be farmed almost anywhere, making more algae biofuel. Secondly, algae biofuel is beneficial for combating global warming. Algae biofuel is known to be carbon neutral; meaning that it only emits the carbon that it absorbs, making no pollution. In detail, in the procedure of photosynthesis growing algae absorbs carbon. When algae biofuels are burned some carbon is emitted, but the emission balance is neutral. Therefore, it only emits the carbon that was previously absorbed, adding no new carbon into the atmosphere. This is good because algae has a very fast multiplicity rate, in which they can double their weight many times in a single day, without exacerbating the environment. Lastly, algae biofuel does not exploit excess water. Algae fuels have no influence fresh water resources, they can be grown anywhere. Algae can be developed in the ocean, freshwater, and wastewater and even the sewage, having no effect to our fresh water. There is really no perimeter to the types of water in
