There was a ClimateTown video that mentioned more on the algae. It didn't start out quite as a lie, but more a hopeful prediction that they could be both the heroes in finding a "clean" solution, and it would supply the amount they thought. It's when they threw money at it and it kept failing very badly that they just kept lying on its promise instead of just admitting it was too good to be true.
