Microbiological warfare? Lets see if we can take out the fuel supply with an algae strain that will foul up the the bio fuel algae. Just introduce it into the water supply for the bio fuel algae plants. Just thinking out of the box here. It seems it would be easy for a committed organization to take out a bio fuel plant.
I’m not against bio fuels, but if anything we need to diversify our energy sources so that the loss or reduction in one area will allow increased production with our other energy sources to make up for the shortfall.
Want a secure energy future?
Build 100 new nuclear plants and several breeder reactors. Then encourage transition of our home heating and personal transportation systems to electric. Best bang for the buck for our energy future.
Better yet are the neighborhood and city sized micro nuclear plants. Widely distributed power sources are much harder to disrupt.
The danger that they face is that less efficient algae can over run the open ponds, and since the ponds are open, anyone could introduce something harmful. Of course petroleum refineries are just as vulnerable to attack.
Breeder reactors would be a remedy for burying nuke waste.
We don't seem to lack solutions just the will to implement them.
