[66] 这段话是加拿大一位生物学家2008年8月在博客上写的:“我刚从印度那边的波斯湾地区(Asaluyeh/Nyband Bay)回来。气温40℃,海水35℃。(要是你觉得在这么高的温度下做现场勘查工作挺有乐趣的,拜托一定私下写信给我!)我们观察了水下4~15米的珊瑚。不管处在什么水位,珊瑚都没有‘漂白’的迹象。或许这跟‘适应力’有点关系。此外,这些无名礁石覆盖着大约30%的珊瑚,比佛罗里达礁岛群那儿的比例还高。”原文见http://coral.aoml.noaa.gov/pipermail/coral-list/2008-August/037881.html.

[75] 本段中的数字由麦凯重新计算过,MacKay,D.2009.Sustainable Energy-without the Hot Air.UIT,Cambridge.把这一数字(人均每天125千瓦时)跟第7章来自另一源头的数字作比:假设英格兰总人口为5000万,总共消耗2500亿瓦特(每秒钟2500亿焦耳),或者人均每秒5000焦耳。1千瓦时里包含360万焦耳,每天有86400秒,那么5000×86400=4.32亿焦耳(每人每天)。4.32亿焦耳/360万焦耳=120千瓦时(每人每天)。两个数据是互为印证的。
