Chris Martenson weaves together a number of seemingly disp arate topics into a single story\, discussing the Economy\, Energy\, and the Environment... For it is where these fields overlap and intersect t hat the greatest story of any generation will get told. \;\n \;\n& #13\;\nChris Martenson is an author and obsessive financial observer who has made profound changes in his lifestyle because of what he sees comi ng. He runs a popular website devoted to advancing awareness of the Thre e“E’s"\;--the Economy\, Energy and the Environment\, although most o f the focus is on tracking the economy. \;\n \;\nChris is not a n economist. He is trained as a scientist\, having completed both a Ph.D . and a post-doctoral program in Neurotoxicology at Duke University. Chr is’s extensive scientific training guides how he thinks. He gathers data \, develops hypotheses\, and continually seeks to accept or reject them based on the evidence at hand. He lets the data tell the story. \; \n \;\nIn addition\, Chris has a solid business background\, with an MBA in Finance from Cornell with ten years experience in corporate finan ce and strategic consulting\, becoming an executive of a Fortune 300 com pany. \;\n \;\nThe main body of Chris' work\, The Crash Course\ , is a dynamic web-based video presentation\, bringing together the thre ads of the “Three E’s\,” and explaining why and how the next 20 years wi ll be completely unlike the last 20. \;\nShown in Three Parts \;\n All 20 sections take 3 hours and 23 minutes to watch in full\, with chap ters are between 3 and 20 minutes in length.   \;\nTo allow for plent y of time for discussion we will be showing this DVD in three parts\, on the following days.
