The product of a unique collaboration between a pioneering earth scientist and an award-winning science writer, Fixing Climate takes an unconventional approach to the problem of global warming--and offers a possible solution. Hailed by his colleagues as "one of the our greatest living geoscientists," Wallace S. Broecker, a longtime researcher at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, warned about the possible consequences of global warming decades before it became a compelling public issue. Hooked on climate studies since his student days, he has learned, largely through his own findings, that climate does change--naturally, dramatically, and rarely benignly. He also knows from experience that when mankind pushes nature as we are currently doing by dumping some sixty to seventy million metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every day, climate will change even more dramatically and less benignly. As Broecker points out, if a well-meaning fairy godmother were to turn us all into energy-saving paragons at the stroke of midnight tonight, the resulting reduction in atmospheric carbon dioxide might lessen but could not turn aside the great warming tide now headed our way. There is, nonetheless, a glimmer of hope in the development of new technologies that are directed not only at the reduction of carbon dioxide output but also at its harmless disposal.

Great Kit
This is a really nice tire repair kit. It contains all the parts you will need to fix a flat caused by a nail or screw. I would also recomend everyone keep a tire inflator in your vehicle. The kit is very compact and takes up very little room in the trunk.

Apparently I’m a magnet for screws, this kit has saved me a lot of money
Apparently I’m a magnet for screws, this kit has saved me a lot of money I drive a lot and somehow I manage to find every screw and nail on the road. At this point I’m convinced my tires have some kind of magnetic attraction to them. Because of that this tire plug kit has actually saved me a lot of money. Instead of constantly going to a shop every time I pick up a screw, I can just plug the tire and get back on the road. The tools in the kit feel solid and it comes with everything you need to do a basic tire plug. I’ve used it a few times already and it works exactly how it should. The plugs hold well and the kit is easy to keep in the trunk so it’s there when you need it. If you drive a lot like I do, it’s honestly just a good thing to have in the car.

Excellent kit. Does what it's made for! Bought the hard case kit for my garage, and a soft case kit for the car. Patched a hole in my motorcycle tire with no problems. Quick, reliable, and easy to do.

Good value for price
Size: 67pcs
Great mid price plug kit, as a professional mechanic these are good for temporary fixes to get you by till a proper patch can be done. The tools are not super cheap and seem to be high enough quality to hold up.
