In a recent Instagram reel, a Brazilian influencer known as “Mylly Biologando” grins at the camera after inspecting a test tube filled with something bubbling and green.
It’s a microalgae that could “transform the future” as a source of less-polluting biodiesel fuel, explains Biologando, whose Instagram name roughly translates from Portuguese as “Biology-ing,” and who’s best known for light-hearted posts about natural science.
