Carbon Capture Corporation remains a leader in the algae-based biofuel industry, spurred by growing concerns over reliance on
imported oil, shortages of food supplies, and greenhouse gas emissions leading to global warming. These concerns have created demand for
algae-based products that can provide alternative fuels, supplement the world’s
food supply, and help reduce carbon emissions.

Algae Industry Magazine interviews Dr. Rick Barrows USDA
"I think algal oils and algal proteins are perfectly situated to supply the expanding aquaculture industry."
"A lot of algae people call up and say they’ve got algae and we say okay,
we need twenty kilos to get started, and they say they have a hundred
grams now and can get us a hundred grams next month. That’s not a large
enough quantity. If I need five hundred pounds from Carbon Capture, they
get it."
