Notes on the acidification of the world ocean:
P. 88: "One-third of all the carbon dioxide that has been emitted since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution has been absorbed by seawater, turning it acid."
P.90: "Even in acidified water, the conches could easily turn themselves upright. What the acid seawater affected,..., was the 'decision-making' of the conch. The toxic sea was distorting its mind."

P.69: "It is the most subversive picture of knowledge. Look at a wild creature - even hold it in your hand - and it is obvious that you do not 'have' it. You hold it but everything it is stretches far beyond your enclosing fingers, in time and space and through its own interior existence."

Or to do with being?... that invertebrates such as these prawns 'are aware of the world (including the state of the mobile body within the world), and that this aware-ness feels a certain way to the organism that has it'."
