Bionavitas speeds algae growth with 'light rods'

From CNET. Very interesting work from Bionavitas. This is the kind of work that really interests me. I hear a lot of naysayers talking about biofuels not being a reasonable alternative to petroleum, but how can this be bad?

I'd like to see a lot of the scientists who formerly worked in the biopharm industry moving into this type of work. I think it's a good transition and there have been so many layoffs in the biopharm industry. We need those scientists!
