We have pioneered aquaculture and algae production for the last 27 years. Setting records in Shrimp production and pioneering desert algae production plus we have developed processes for Carbon Negative Fuels and Carbon Modification Centers (CMCs) that creates synergy between agriculture, aquaculture and other existing technologies.  Today we have associations with some of the best minds of aquaculture and have developed our concept of algae farming in association with what we call Carbon Modification Centers. This concept is of establishing CMCs dispersed across the country side allowing local algae production and the use of nearby agricultural waste material to produce food, fuel, fertilizer and feeds.

This concept has the potential to revolutionize rural areas and have the following beneficial results:

• Potentially double the worlds food production
• To be humanitys tool to control the Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere and be part of the cure for global climate change.
• The production of several types of fuel and energy.
• Help solve Americas dependence on foreign oil which will in turn help solve Americas trade imbalance.
• Help save the oceans from over fishing and exploitation.
• Have significant beneficial economic effects to rural areas in America and the world.

Why Arizona 

Its the climate, lots of solar radiation, high temperatures and warm nights. Other parts of the country have this type of weather a dozen days a year. Southwest Arizona, the Sonoran desert has this extreme weather for almost half the year. High solar radiation and heat can quickly harm most plants, but algae lives in water and thrives in the heat which creates the perfect environment for several specific strains of algae.  We have developed the systems and methods necessary to grow algae on a high-volume basis using high-intensity open ponds. The system allows production of a homogenous algae species and manages the contamination problems encountered in most outdoor systems.  The Desert allows us to grow the algae outdoors, in an environment in which we can cultivate a specific algae at a cost competitive with traditional fuels.    We believe that most algae production in the United States will be concentrated in Southwest Arizona and a small part of Southeast California. Other areas of the country will also grow algae for biofuels but not to the extent or production levels.
