I heard aout that like 2 years ago and it disappeared. Im pretty sure if you did the right search for it you would find the old thread.

This would be a great development. Of course, it wouldn't solve all of the environmental issues surrounding fossil fuels, but not having to argue over obvious mistakes like ANWAR drilling, and not being dependent on places like the middle east and Venezuela are both clear wins.

Qool stuff.

I think using technology based on or directly using biological systems is the future.

Fuels made from extent carbon would be a great goal. I do love big engines and all that, but they make me feel guilty. If we could make gas from extant carbon I would not care nearly as much.

It doesn't matter whether or not you feel guilty about it. There are very real, measurable consequences to our behavior, and those effects will grow as the population grows. Anti-environmentalism is short-sighted and generally indicates ignorance about basic science.
