Mini Book Review: The Crash Course

Subtitled: The Unsustainable Future of Our Economy, Energy, and Environment.

By Chris Martenson

Martenson isn't the only author or blog writer who says that the way we live and consume is not a sustainable model for the earth.

To support his thesis, Martenson's book details the data behind his conclusions. The Three Es are required to maintain the good life: Energy is scraping the bottom of the barrel for more oil; the debt of the Economy is "managed" by central banks; and the Environment is misused and abused.

Martenson lays out the facts. There is no way to know how this unsustainable world will fail. It may take a couple of decades, but it will fail. However, it is up to the reader to be aware and make plans for living differently in the future.

  1. Like other 'experts' he has his opinions and isn't always correct (http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/daily-ticker/p-500-may-fall-more-40-fall-chris-120957460.html).

    He has his facts, others can take the same and arrive at a different, equally-valid, opinion.
