Samples collected from large tanks containing mixes of various freshwater algal species. The green samples are healthy, while the yellow samples were contaminated by a fungal disease. The biofuels experiment was conducted in the summer of 2016 at U-M's E.S. George Reserve near Pinckney, Mich. Photo by Daryl Marshke/Michigan Photography.
BioBombola
ecoLogicStudio
Designers are looking at ways to counter the impact of the environmental crisis, ecoLogicStudio have developed BioBombola, a zero-waste food source, created by cultivating an algae garden at home. Algae absorbs carbon dioxide and oxygenates the environment more effectively than house plants, while also providing a nutrient-rich vegetable protein that can be harvested and consumed.

Waste Age: What can design do?
(October 2021 – February 2022)
We all know waste is a big problem. So how are we going to fix it?
A new generation of designers is rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to food, electronics to construction, even packaging - finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of clean materials and a circular economy could point the way out of the Waste Age.
Explore major new exhibits that capture the devastating impact of waste including a large-scale art installation by Ibrahim Mahama made from e-waste in Ghana.
The exhibition showcases some of the visionary designers who are reinventing our relationship with waste, including Formafantasma, Stella McCartney, The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, Lacaton & Vassal, Fernando Laposse, Bethany Williams, Phoebe English and Natsai Audrey Chieza.
'We must face the problem of waste – we can no longer ignore what happens to things when we get rid of them. Instead of thinking of objects as things that have an end life, they can have many lives. This is not just an exhibition it is a campaign, and we all have an active part in our future.' Gemma Curtin, Curator.

This is a mini-hot spring with algae growing around. I thought it lookes a little bit like a knot in a plank of wood.
27 Aug 2007. Helsinki, Finland. Greenpeace activists confront delegates of the ongoing Helsinki Commission meeting with algae and dead cod. 25 % of the Baltic Sea bottom area is already dead due to eutrophication and the cod stocks are threatened by overfishing. Greenpeace demands rapid action to combat the ocean crisis. The algae was collected in Helsinki the day before.

The trees in this part of Point Lobos are covered in a Green Algae (it produces chlorophyll cells). The color of this green algae happens to be orange (due to carotene pigment). Strange. :-)
Trentepohlia aurea v. polycarpa
(great info about this algae can be found at: pt-lobos.parks.state.ca.us/Plants.htm)

Various combinations of algal species were grown in 80 cattle tanks in a federally funded biofuels experiment at the University of Michigan's E.S. George Reserve near Pinckney, Mich. Each of the 290-gallon cattle tanks contains from one to four freshwater algal species. Photo by Daryl Marshke/Michigan Photography.
