Can't they just put the algae in the ocean?

If we put the algae in the oceans, then sink all of our cities underwater, all of our problems will be solved.

There are algae in the ocean. The problem with ocean algae is not that they aren't there, but that their requirements (sunlight, oxygen, acidity, temperature, etc.) prevent them from expanding any further.
