Abstract

This short review will illustrate that photosynthesis can provide a real contribution towards our sustainable, green fuel requirements in the future. However, it is argued that the focus on biofuels is misplaced and that, in the longer term, investment in artificial photosynthesis will prove much more beneficial.
