How to Cool the Planet: Geoengineering and the Audacious Quest to Fix Earth's ClimateClimate discussions often focus on potential impacts over a long period of time several decades, a century even. But change could also happen much more suddenly. What if we had a real climate emergency how could we cool the planet in a hurry?

Climate discussions often focus on potential impacts over a long period of time--several decades, a century even. But change could also happen much more suddenly. What if we had a real climate emergency--how could we cool the planet in a hurry? This question has led a group of scientists to pursue extreme solutions: huge contraptions that would suck CO2 from the air, machines that brighten clouds and deflect sunlight away from the earth, even artificial volcanoes that spray heat-reflecting particles into the atmosphere. This is the radical and controversial world of geoengineering. How to Cool the Planet, Jeff Goodell explores the scientific, political, and moral aspects of geoengineering. How are we going to change the temperature of whole regions if we can't even predict next week's weather? What about wars waged with climate control as the primary weapon? There are certainly risks, but Goodell persuades us that geoengineering may be our last best hope, a Plan B for the environment. And if it is, we need to know enough to get it right.

The Hobby Crafter Review: Stick well, clear print, durable, accurate alignment
See below the way I choose the star rating. First I want to say that I am still mad, that the NIIMBOT printer only accepts original NIIMBOT labels, which come at a VERY limited choice, are pricey, and often not even available on Amazon. That being said, those labels work very well, the print is crisp, even the small letters (see picture, the small letters are 1/16"). The ink does not come off, even when rubbed with greasy fingers. I am not able to remove them easily, the adhesion is very good. All prints are centered, even when printing multiple. They align very well in the printer. Which is to be expected at that price! I will buy them again once they are available, because I have no choice, but also because the quality is very good. Star Rating: ***** Exceeds expectations and is better than thought **** Meets expectations and would buy again ***Some minor flaws but ok for the price, would not buy again ** Terrible and I only kept it when the price is right or because of the lack of better alternative *Returned the item because it doesn't work as advertised, is broken, or quality is extremely poor

20 X 40mm vial labels
Size: 1.6“ X 0.8"-White, Color: White
Works perfectly. Make sure when you’re buying labels that you don’t buy M1/M2 labels unless you have the M1/M2. You need direct transfer unless you have the M series with the fancy color cartridges etc. The “fancy” labels won’t work on normal thermal printers, they need the color cartridges to show up. Anyway this is the 20mm X 40mm size. Perfect for vials. Works in many other non-branded machines.
