But displaying green skin alone would not satisfy me. How much advanced gene
engineering would it take to turn haemoglobin in chlorophyll, so we could
use green skin to turn sunlight into energy? I remember, both are
biochemically similar. Would it effect our energy recycling in a negative
way and damage our brain functioning, if we tried to run on photosynthesis?
