- Algeria: 42,000 kJ/m³
- Bangladesh: 36,000 kJ/m³
- Canada: 38,200 kJ/m³
- Indonesia: 40,600 kJ/m³
- Netherlands: 33,320 kJ/m³
- Norway: 39,877 kJ/m³
- Pakistan: 34,900 kJ/m³
- Russia: 38,231 kJ/m³
- Saudi Arabia: 38,000 kJ/m³
- United Kingdom: 39,710 kJ/m³

Famous quotes containing the words higher, heating, values, natural, gases and/or sources:
“But I, being man, can kiss
And bed-spread-eagle too;
All flesh shall come to this,
Being less than angel is,
Yet higher far in bliss
As it entwines with you.”
—William Robert Rodgers (1909–1969)
“If the factory people outside the colleges live under the discipline of narrow means, the people inside live under almost every other kind of discipline except that of narrow means—from the fruity austerities of learning, through the iron rations of English gentlemanhood, down to the modest disadvantages of occupying cold stone buildings without central heating and having to cross two or three quadrangles to take a bath.”
—Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
“Writing ought either to be the manufacture of stories for which there is a market demand—a business as safe and commendable as making soap or breakfast foods—or it should be an art, which is always a search for something for which there is no market demand, something new and untried, where the values are intrinsic and have nothing to do with standardized values.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“We have become unsure of the rules and unsure of our roles. Parenting, like brain surgery, is now all-consuming, fraught with anxiety, worry, and self-doubt. We have allowed what used to be simple and natural to become bewildering and intimidating.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“The bird is not in its ounces and inches, but in its relations to Nature; and the skin or skeleton you show me, is no more a heron, than a heap of ashes or a bottle of gases into which his body has been reduced, is Dante or Washington.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The sources of poetry are in the spirit seeking completeness.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
