If algae farming somehow became economic on an industrial scale environmentalists would fight anyone who wanted to build an algae factory anywhere in the country. An Obama administration would side with them.

Krauthammer Mocks Obama’s Algae Energy Plan

"I was impressed by the President's analysis of this situation, where we have no control over the global price of oil," Charles Krauthammer said. "We're dependent on oil from unfriendlies. And he says, as we heard, drilling for oil to relieve our dependency is not a solution, it's not a plan. He said we have to go to clean energy. He talks about something really revolutionary today. Algae. A $14 million grant for the development of algae... I think this shows the vision, the hope and change he promised in 2008."
