Algae have a habit of turning up where they're not wanted. They coat your swimming pool in green gunk, cling to rocks at the beach and even make headlines when they take over prominent reservoirs, such as the White House Reflection Pool. But put them to work in the right setting, and algae can be surprisingly useful. In fact, these plant-like organisms may hold the key to sustainable fuels of the future.
