Media Promotion Begins for the Algae Competition
FutureofAlgaeMedia promotion for the International Algae Competition begins with "The Future of Algae", a 6 part series at AlgaeIndustryMagazine.com.
We asked "How will algae change the world and improve our lives?" This article series explores the future of algae as seen through the prism of the entries from the International Algae Competition.

There are so many remarkable and creative entries in the competition. The series of six articles features some of the entries and the visions they represent for algae in our future with design ideas for algae production landscapes, sustainable and affordable algae production systems for medicines, food, feed, energy, nutrients, water remediation, carbon capture and new algae foods.

Emerging Themes, Schemes and Dreams in Landscape Designs:

  • Regenerating the natural environment and restoring polluted landscapes
  • Creating urban master plans and green water parks with algae production
  • Innovating the traditional seaweed and marine algae industry
  • Floating algae biofuel production farms along coastlines
  • Capturing and reusing CO2 emissions in transport networks
  • Enhancing quality of life and supporting communities in the developing world
  • Designing living buildings and retrofitting buildings with photosynthetic membranes
  • Fueling algae-based urban economies and eco-communities
  • Showcasing algae parks for entertainment, education and recreation
2012 International Exhibitions
We are now prospecting public exhibition venues and sponsors for  2012 Algae Competition Exhibitions in museums, conference centers and universities around the world. These will be a multi-sensory experience of algae landscape and architecture designs on wall murals and video monitors, working models of algae systems, and algae food and beverages to delight the taste.  Please contact us if you have recommendations, would like to participate, or would like more information about this program.
