Several companies and government agencies are funding efforts to reduce capital and operating costs and make algae fuel production commercially viable.Harvested algae, like fossil fuel, release CO2 when burnt but unlike fossil fuel the CO2 is taken out of the atmosphere by the growing algae.

Insurance is defined as the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another, in exchange for payment. An insurer is a company selling the insurance; the insured, or policyholder, is the person or entity buying the insurance policy.

Each district is managed by a district chief appointed by the governor. District councils, elected to four-year terms, serve as advisory bodies to their respective district chiefs.

Bangkok's current Thai name, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, is a shortening of its full ceremonial name later given by King Mongkut: Mon, 9 Jan 2012 19:07:47 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/129550508.html#IDComment259718464 http://jeffnolan.com/wp/2011/08/15/google-going-all-in-on-mobile/#IDComment259717323 Another theory speculates that it is shortened from Bang Makok (บางมะกอก), makok being the name of Spondias pinnata, a plant bearing olive-like fruit. This is supported by the fact that Wat Arun, a historic temple in the area, used to be named Wat Makok.Officially, however, the town was known as Thonburi Si Mahasamut (from Pali and Sanskrit, lit. city of treasures gracing the ocean), according to Ayutthaya chronicles.Bangkok was likely a colloquial name, albeit one widely adopted by foreign visitors.

It was the centre of Siam's modernisation in the late 19th century, including the introduction of transportation and utility infrastructure in the reigns of Kings Mongkut and Chulalongkorn, subjected to Allied bombing during World War II, and has long been the modern nation's central political stage, with numerous uprisings and coups d'état having taken place on its streets throughout the years.

King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke, who succeeded Taksin, moved the capital to the eastern bank in 1782, to which the current city dates its foundation.

Due to its strategic location near the mouth of the Chao Phraya River, the town gradually increased in importance, serving as a customs outpost, and even became the site of a siege in 1688 in which the French were expelled from Siam.
