New Biofuel System

This technology is probably the only biofuel technology I'm really excited about. Unlike E85, it doesn't use food crops, and although algae based programs don't compete directly with food crops, they still require fermentation of cellulose, or refining of algae produced oil to create fuel. More links here and here. Joule Biotechnologies website here. I've been thinking for a while that we should be able to extract CO2 from the atmosphere and produce fuel. Now Joule has gone and built something that might be able to do that.

I'm not the only one who thinks the impersonal traffic light is a bad idea. However, in contrast to my thinking (which is that a new type of traffic control device needs to be invented), Hans Monderman, thinks we should just do away with them all together. He even has a Dutch city of 50,000 as a test scenario. I wonder how long it will take until this idea becomes prevalent.
