The Ultimate Green Energy

A new study shows that lowly phytoplankton produce about 63 terawatts of chemical power every year. Compare that with the fact that in 2001, humans collectively consumed about 13.5 terawatts.

All we need to do is harness this energy source and presto -- energy problems solved.

The study also found that


the movements of all of the ocean's marine life — from lowly phytoplankton to
the largest whales — play a crucial role in bringing cold water from the ocean's
depths to the surface. This ocean churning is what powers the global
circulation
of warm and cold water and is an important factor in the Earth's
climate.

Lastly the study shows that humans are bad.


Humans might be inadvertently affecting this important ocean "biomixing" through
their decimation of whales and big fish populations.


Another downside, the Wachowski Brothers may need to revamp the script for The Matrix 4.

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
