Beginnings of Algae Farming; Expanding the definition of the Red-Green Revolution.

The Red-Green Revolution has largely been focused on the transition to green energy. While it's a noble goal, we cannot blind ourselves with one goal when it comes to the Red-Green Revolution. National parks have been, for example, a step in the right direction to protecting the flora and fauna of Xsampa. But it must be expanded. As such, the People's Committee of Wildlife and Ecological Preservation has moved to expand the definition of what is to be protected, and what is to be of national interest. Chief among these is Algae Farming. Algae farms are few and rare in Xsampa, and even rarer in Terra. But Xsampa will join the few nations that engage in algae farming. The benefits (besides producing new jobs) is largely allowing for the usage of biofuel, can help in restoring biodiversity to marine life within our waters in the Sovereign Sea, help in any potential oceanic acidification, and plus, it has practical industrial benefits such as domestic fertilizer bioplastics, dyes, paints and fabrics.

As such, the first step will be supporting the creation of Algae Platforms. These platforms will be vital for farming, growing and managing Algae. Marine ecologists will be involved in the construction of these platforms to ensure no harm is done to local wildlife or the environment. Furthermore, to both benefit the general Red-Green Revolution and power these platforms more easily, offshore energy buoys will be utilized, looking to exploit solar, tidal and wind power. They'll support water sensors, aeration pumps, and monitoring buoys. Those monitoring buoys in question will focus on water quality and oxygenation, algae growth rates, and ecological quality.

While this isn't a big step, it is a solid start. This is simply the start of Algae Farming, and developing a new industry. As such, we can't expect too much developments, but this is a solid start for the Red-Green Revolution to diversify beyond clean energy.
