Nutrient flow in a major urban settlement
Apparent consumption and socio‐economic distribution of nutrients in an urban settlement
Data relating to the Hong Kong population of 1971 show that with the exception of fats and calcium, the apparent consumption of food was comparable to that of populations in advanced industrial societies. An analysis of the socio‐economic distribution of calcium, energy and animal protein consumption reveals a clear gradation of intake from lower socio‐economic groups to higher socio‐economic groups. In this analysis it is shown that the level of…
Energy use in two large cities
A range of methods and assumptions is presented for drawing up complete energy budgets for individual consumption sectors and for the detailed study of the spatial distribution and seasonal and diurnal variation of energy use in Hong Kong. The energy use per capita in Hong Kong is just over one‐third of that in the Sydney region, whereas the intensity of energy use per unit area in Hong Kong is nearly twice that in Sydney. Midwinter daily energy …
