This constituted an evolutionary advance quite unlike any other known to have occurred. 7. Whenever free oxygen is available, it is energetically advantageous for an organism to use it to oxidize organic compounds rather than to use the oxygen bound in nitrate salts. 8. The final circulation pattern is determined by the interaction of the two systems, each system influencing the other in a complicated cycle of events. 9. Because of the large number of variables involved it is difficult to predict what, the world would look like without the denitrification reaction, but it would certainly not be the world we know. 10. The bulldozer and the miracle drugs may be chosen as symbols of Western man's simplistic faith that he has become the master of his destiny. Only gradually and painfully is he learning that he cannot go on working against nature if he is to survive. 11. In general, local and regional environmental problems, such as the thermal pollution of lakes and waterways, and the direct health effects of pollution on man were not considered. Nor did the study examine in any detail the problems of radioactive waste disposal... But the study does not stop there. It goes on to suggest what man can do about the problems he does understand and how he can acquire essential information about those he doesn't. 12. It is animals and plants which lived in or near water whose remains are most likely to be preserved, for one of the necessary conditions of preservation is quick burial, and it is only in the seas and rivers and sometimes lakes, where mud and slit has been continuously deposited, that bodies and the like can be rapidly covered over and preserved. 13.

If we had to stop producing CO2, no coal, oil or gas could be burned, and all modern societies would come to a halt. The only possible alternative is nuclear energy, whose by-products may cause serious environmental effects. Also, we don't have electric motor vehicles to be propelled by electricity from nuclear energy. 23. Although by the year 2000 we expect global : thermal power output to be six times the present level, we do not expect it to affect global climate. Over cities it does already create «heat islands» and as these grow larger, they may have regional climatic effects and they should be studied. 24. We naively seem to assume that by willing the means we attain the goals. If someone , in a fire station got the idea that silencing the alarm-clock would be a good way of handling fires, we would classify him as a mental case.
