I'm back with a difficult tasks..well, I'm not saying that writing a comment is too DIFFICULT but I have difficulty in choosing WHICH one to write. Anyway, I have my dice to choose the topics.. *sigh*.

Well, my tasks are writing my own opinion for FOUR THREE articles. I will write them in separate parts though.

...
Are you ready?
Lets BEGIN!!!!

Title of the article: Rainforest fungus can be new source of biofuel

Date: 04/11/2008

Preview :
............ .Experts believe the organism, Gliocladium roseum, which produces almost pure bio diesel could potentially be a completely new source of green energy. The fungus, which lives inside the Ulmo tree in the Patagonian rainforest, naturally produces hydrocarbon fuel similar to.............

Fuels from natural source! I think it is a good news. Besides, unlike crude oil, fungus won't be finish. The fungus will keep on growing which mean it's a renewable resources. This foundation might be people's future hope if there is any severe situation such as running out of geothermal energy which produce electricity.

With reference to the article, Prof Strobel found that when the diesel fuel fungus was exposed to potentially toxic antibiotics, it reacted defensively by generating volatile gases. However, something exciting was found when he furthered the investigation about this fungus.
"Then when we examined the gas composition of G. roseum, we were totally surprised to learn that it was making a plethora of hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon derivatives," said Prof Strobel.

This shows that not even one living thing is useless in this world. We might think the fungus are useless. Who knows that it can be fuel if these scientists did not research for it. If you need to wait for 100 millions year for crude oil to form from dead seas animals and plant, why not start to plant the fungus in high yield? Probably that would bring more advantages. Besides, high yield meaning you can use it in many areas such as for electricity or fuels for cars. This will also increase the country's income and more jobs related to fungus-fuel manufacture will be offered to the country's people. Less jobless people, country will develop faster than before, thus the standard of living will also be high.

Since the resource is renewable, it is more reliable and somehow it guaranteed people's life *people won't have to worry it will run-out and they have to quit the job*. When compared to oil which is not a renewable resources, soon it will totally gone in future years, not now, probably our next, next generation , so people have to search for a new resource to replace it which is not easy to accomplish.

Furthermore, the foundation of this fungus as a bio-fuel will inspire people that there are more useful living things(plants) are needed to figure it out.

I search for the picture of this fungus and I found it ..!! yay! *anyway, the chances for founding the picture is high..why am I so excited about this? *sigh**

here is it: people who are interested to see how it looks like, come and take a nice look of it!


*note: I don't own this picture, so credit goes to whoever i got this from...which I don't know*
