Event Description

Transition Colorado presents Chris Martenson, the creator of the online video series, The Crash Course, live in Boulder. This introduction will explore the dynamics behind our current economic predicament and next steps people should consider, at this time, to create true prosperity in a more secure future. (Download flyer here.)

Chris Martenson is an author and obsessive financial observer who has made profound changes in his lifestyle because of what he sees coming. He runs a popular website devoted to advancing awareness of the Three“E’s"--the Economy, Energy and the Environment, although most of the focus is on tracking the economy.

Chris is not an economist. He is trained as a scientist, having completed both a Ph.D. and a post-doctoral program in Neurotoxicology at Duke University. Chris’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.

In addition, Chris has a solid business background, with an MBA in Finance from Cornell with ten years experience in corporate finance and strategic consulting, becoming an executive of a Fortune 300 company.

The main body of Chris' work, The Crash Course, is a dynamic web-based video presentation, bringing together the threads of the “Three E’s,”and explaining why and how the next 20years will be completely unlike the last 20.

This is a real opportunity for anyone who wishes to get a better understanding of how our lives may change in the medium and long term. A chance to meet other like minded individuals and hear how others may be preparing for whatever befalls us.
