Marine Micro Algae


Studies have shown that microalgae would be a commercial replacement for the highest quality fishmeal and fish oil3,6. But due to new technique cost of production has been considered too high. They are the best sources of protein and oil for the diets of marine animals and the very base of the marine food chain.  And, marine micro algae have the potential to provide the peoples two things that we desperately need: a mechanism for carbon sequestration and a source of sustainable energy. Algae would create a carbon sink, a reservoir that absorbs more carbon than it releases. And, unlike other plants, microalgae can double their mass, resulting in a growth rate up to 100 times faster than terrestrial plants.
