Biofuels

Biofuels by jurvetson.
La Jolla is biotech mecca...

The 92121 zip code, just North of San Diego, has the most biotech companies, 2.8x that of second place (South San Francisco).

break out the bubbly! your photo & caption actually gave me an idea - to produce a global biofuels map where each 'hotspot' is represented by a bubble, and the size of the bubble is proportional to market share (real and potential). A forecast map a few years out would presumably produce some bubbles in unexpected locations.

hmmm..... and global warming should extend the oil palm regions out from the current 10° band around the equator...

biotron: I can't talk about this one yet... sorry.

Heh, fuel of tomorrow... Or perhaps one day computer.

Wrong bubbles, but bubbles nonetheless. =) Bubbles have been a theme today.

I don't know if you know, but your picture was used in a TED talk by Juan Enriquez. It's a pretty cool talk, I figured you'd appreciate the link. After cruising your photostream to find this pic - I'm sure you actually do know. Cool stuf, BTW. I've enjoyed the ride. Thanks for sharing.
