In the Wall Street Journal today, Juan Enriquez has a commentary on the looming energy crisis, in which he argues that the solution to it must come from biologists.

Enriquez, who was founding director of the Harvard Business School Life Science Project and cofounded Synthetic Genomics, suggests that biofuels -- and likely ones designed through synthetic biology -- represent "the birth of a new and potentially very large industry, one comparable in scale to biotechnology."
