Here's a quandary for some: a method for turning waste into fuel bilogoically. Snag is it GM yeat and fungi. I tned to feel this is a good case for GMO's. The whole thing could be a kind of compost for fuel idea and sound like it has a future. Here's how it works: 'Fungi make enzymes, chemicals that act like tiny scissors that can cut up complex strands of organic material,' said project leader Katy Reczey, of Budapest University. 'These enzymes are quite good at breaking down cellulose, but not good enough. We have improved on nature by splicing extra genes into fungi so they make even better enzymes.'
Spot the potnetial difficulty; what if those enzymes are good at breaking down other stuff and the organisms go wild? Do we have a fungal flesh-eater?
