Is Algae-based Biofuel an Energy Game Changer?
Is Algae-based Biofuel an Energy Game Changer?

Algae is one surprising potential energy source that is showing great promise. It has gained recent media attention as the U.S Navy has announced plans to test the use of algae biofuel in one of its cargo ships. Unlike oil which is only found in underground deposits in certain parts of the world, algae grows in abundance all over the globe. Approximately half of algae’s weight is comprised of lipid oil can be converted into biodiesel. Biodiesel burns more cleanly and efficiently than petroleum.

Big European banks, under pressure to sell assets and shrink their balance sheets, won a victory in the latest deal to save the euro. But they still have a long way to go.
By Cyrus Sanati, contributor
FORTUNE -- Even as European leaders convened this week an emergency summit to save the euro, European banks were busy trying to offload trillions of euros worth of assets in a bid to slim down. But while the banks may appear desperate to sell in order to fortify their balance sheets and comply with new capital restrictions, they don't seem willing to take a bath on their performing assets just yet, frustrating willing buyers hunting for an easy deal.
