Intensive Sea Weed Aquaculture: A Potent Solution Against Global Warming

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Seaweeds and their Role in Globally Changing Environments

Part of the book series: Cellular Origin, Life in Extreme Habitats and Astrobiology ((COLE,volume 15))

Abstract

On the basis of current understanding of the relationship between climate change and energy policy, development of an effective and multistructured renewable energy sector is crucial, as acknowledged in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the fourteenth Conference of the Parties (COP-14), held in December 2008 in Ponzan, Poland. The worldwide energy demand is increasing rapidly as many industries and populations are rapidly expanding. Since fossil fuels are finite resources and their combustion leads to a further increase of greenhouse gases, such as CO2, SO2, and NO x , their continued use is not sustainable. Today, renewable energy sources supply 14% of the total global energy demand. Some expect that in 2040, 50% of the world energy supply will come from renewable sources (Demirbas, 2008). Additional efforts and further research and development on biofuels, toward environmentally and economically sustainable processes, are essential for the full exploitation of this given market opportunity.
