I believe this is called photosynthesis.
- jbert 15y agoYes, but the process then becomes biofuel, which also soaks up land area and has other issues (warping world food prices). It would also be nice to be able to capture the energy output of other energy sources, e.g. nuclear in a nice, energy-dense liquid form.
- aaronblohowiak 15y agoUsing food for fuel is dumb, I concur. I'm a fan of algae.
