This 20 chapter video seminar is the most comprehensive, far-reaching, thorough, even-handed, and level-headed look at the economy, energy, the environment, and the future. All this is accomplished in an educational, apolitical manner. Chris presents facts and graphs, not to shock and awe you, but to educate. He teases so much meaning out of each graph, it has changed my views of the graphs from "dry data" to "profound conclusions based in fact"
You must see this video seminar.
Be warned though, the first quarter of the seminar is slow and can take some effort to slog through. This is by far the weakest part of the entire course but it is not representative of the rest of the course.
Also, the overall length is about 3.5 hours which seems daunting at first but you will be compelled to finish once you get into the meat of presentation. (The previous statement is me speaking from witnessing people so drawn in by the series that they drop whatever plans they originally had just so they can finish the course.) In other words, the length becomes perfectly justifiable once you understand the breadth and depth of the seminar.
