Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

Chris Martenson fans,

By now all of you know that the Crash Course is finally complete. Hats off to Chris, who has put over four years of his life into this herculean effort. Chris has not only amassed this data and created the Crash Course; he’s also committed himself to giving the Crash Course away for free to everyone.

We hope you’ve enjoyed the Crash Course. Now Chris needs your help spreading the word. Chris is passionate about getting the message of the Crash Course out to everyone. So much so that he’s decided to forego the obvious opportunity to sell this fine work for a fair price. Instead he plans to continue giving it away for the sake of public service.

We have no advertising or marketing budget whatsoever. To get the word out, we need to “go viral” with our message, so we desperately need your help to get the word out about the free Crash Course. Specifically, I’m asking everyone to help in the following ways:

  • Tell everyone you know about the Crash Course and encourage them to watch it for free online. Send an e-mail out to everyone you know with a link to www.ChrisMartenson.com/crashcourse.
  • Soon we’ll be announcing our DVD distribution plans. When DVDs are available, we’ll be encouraging everyone to help get them out to as many viewers as possible. I can tell you that we’re going to distribute it essentially at cost (in the range of $5 we think) and specifically encourage people to copy it and distribute it further. Our goal is simple: Get as many people to watch it as possible.
  • We need your help to get people in Washington to pay attention. If everyone e-mails their congresspeople and tells them to go watch the Crash Course online, a few may actually have their staff do so. Sending the DVD will be even better – imagine 30 showing up from different constituents.
  • We’ve already gotten great feedback from subscribers who have been throwing Crash Course parties where they show the Crash Course to their friends and neighbors and then discuss it afterward as a group. We encourage this and any other way you can think of to promote the message.
  • If you have access to anyone in the media, please talk to them about Chris’ work. It’s great that Chris’ articles have been published in some rural newspapers, but we also need to get him into the New York Times!

This is a grassroots effort, and we really appreciate your help. The more we unify as a group to spread the word, the more hope we have that these issues will be debated as a matter of national public policy. Thanks in advance for your help!

What are your Youtube plans?

Your followers might start posting there, you may want to give them some guidelines or not.

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!
One more thing: submit the crash course to social sites like digg, reddit, del.icio.us, facebook, etc. I just hope chris' server/bandwidth can handle it.

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

it has been discussed on a social website that I frequent which is how i found it. I have it as my tag line in my emails, and have mailed many links out to everyone.

 

Someone contact the Coast to Coast network. I sent in a request for them to invite Chris for an interview. I listen to the show often which is another reason I got hooked onto Chris's site as I was a Trends Research member and fan of Gerald Celante and his predictions which are errily similar and that man is often on the show. This show reaches a lot of people!

Another suggestion is in IM profile.  I've already had one friend watch the series based on having the link show up there.

Erik and Chris:

 

Franchise. Take a cut and have everyone here that are members do your road show....

The franchisee could take an ad out with a financial IQ true false test, a do you know that the Fed isn't federal sort of a thing.

Charge 50 bucks a head and take 20.

Create your own "army" and get the word out and make some worthless us $$$$

 

Take care

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

Following includes detailed synopsis of Chris's entire Crash Course at Exponential-Yewgenics, along with Dr. Al Bartlett's Energy, Population & Mathematics, and Exponential Population Consequences Issues. It was emailed to Simmons & Co. International (Largest Energy Investment Bank in World), Money and Markets, and posted at New Scientist.

RE: The JunkScience of your October 23, 2008 article, Greens: 'Economic growth is killing the planet'

It appears from the statement:



If you need more evidence that the Greens intend to destroy our standard of living, you need not look further than the Oct. 18 issue of New Scientist magazine

that it is highly plausible, that your aforementioned article, has perhaps not considered, among much else, the following information:

1. The Pentagon and Intelligence Communities Perspective on Exponential Factors of Population viz a viz Resources, namely Exponential Yewgenics: See: Pin2Gong-HUMINT

2. Additional Information on the Mathematical Reality, as so eloquently described by among others, Albert Einstein, and Dr. Albert Bartlett, of the Exponential Function; The Energy Economics of Feebleminded Addicts to Politically Correct Religious and Corporate $lave and €annon Fodder Breeding Economics & Religion.... See: Exponential-Yewgenics.

3. CEO of the largest Energy Investment Bank in the World, Mr. Mathew Simmons, Energy White Paper: Revisiting The Limits to Growth: Could The Club of Rome Have Been Correct, After All?, by Matthew Simmons; CEO - Simmons&Co.Intnl See: Fleur-de-Lis

4. US Naval Services Long-Term Study: Global Tipping Points on Food, Water, Energy, Pollution, Population, & Natural Resources; Money and Markets, and The Population Explosion: The Most Powerful Force on Earth, by Martin Weiss, Ph.D., Money and Markets; See: NavyJAG-HUMINT


Quote:
Sometimes you may wonder:
Why are nations so committed to economic growth at nearly any cost?
Why do central banks continue to pump in so much money long after they recognize the inevitability of its inflationary consequences?
Why has GDP growth become the supreme icon of most governments, businesses and investors?
When debts and deficits run amuck, why dont our leaders just slow down, take a breather, and focus on finding a more stable path?
Your answers may be varied. But if you trace back through the chain of cause and effect, you will always return to one single, overriding factor: The population explosion colliding with finite resources. More mouths to feed. More demand. More pressure to perpetuate growth. More inflation.


From 'whom', do you suppose this 'PRESSURE' comes to perpetuate 'economic-growth' and 'population growth'; and consequently, the population explosion colliding with finite resources?

Somehow, I don't think it's any of the individuals you are so enthusiastically criticising? Is it?

Might it be accurate to conclude that the junkscience is YOUR OWN?

PS: FYI: Arguably the most authoritative work on terrorism was the February 1986 Report of the Vice President's Task Force on Combating Terrorism, chaired by Vice President George Bush, Sr. This report concludes that the root cause of terrorism is overpopulation (i.e. the population explosion colliding with finite resources).

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

I just shot an e-mail off to NBC nightly news as a suggestion for their "Making a Difference" segment.  I think trying to get the Crash Course on PBS may be another good way to get the material out to more people.   

Good luck!

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

YouTube is nice for a low fi, easy access version of the presentation.  In addition, you don't need to worry about your server load.

 I was also thinking about bittorrent.  The Crash Course video (DVD/Divx/XviD) is a perfect example of legitimate use of the protocol.  People could contribute then simply by seeding the presentation.  

Great work!  Thanks so much for all your hard work.  The information in The Crash Course is life changing.

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

Erik & Chris,

I would like to know how soon I can get a DVD copy, besides sharing with community and family; I need for following; which I imagine shall benefit greatly many people, not only on an 'educational' level, but on a 'legal' level.

The issues in Chris's Crash Course, -- particularly the Exponential Functions of Population viz a viz Resources, and the extensive lack of detailed simple education for citizens on these issues (in simple language as Chris so excellently does in the Crash Course) -- were submitted into the Court Record of HC-CPD Appeal A 696-04 (subsequently transferred to JAG 07-146).

Today, I was informed by the South African Police, that the South African Goverment, are reinstating their previously dropped charges of Crimen Inuria by myself against the leader of the Independent Democrats, Mrs. Patricia de Lille (in aforementioned Legal Matter, referred to above).

If Mrs. de Lille decides to go ahead with the charges, by way of a Trial, then among others, she shall need to testify, on her own behalf. I shall also call Tony Leon (former leader of Democratic Alliance), Nelson Mandela, Manto Tshalbala-Msimang, Archbishop Tutu, Thabo Mbeki, and a few other current and former members of the South African Goverment. These individuals were submitted with legal documentation, via the Office of Mr. Tony Leon (then leader of the Democratic Alliance, who provided written confirmation of having forwarded the Legal Documentation to these individuals in this matter), on these issues; and particularly on their failure to clearly and articulately speak up as 'political' and 'religious' 'leaders' on these issues.

Naturally, should the trial go ahead, and accordingly aforementioned be required to testify; the media shall be forced to cover the trial.

A simplistic allegation of the trial -- hereto relevant -- is as follows: Reasonable citizens given impartial information stated simply and clearly; explaining the interrelated issues of energy to the economy (peak oil), money creation, exponential functions, and particularly their consequences, exponential population growth, the benefits of zero or negative population growth; could be relied on to make wiser long term decisions for the benefit of the ecology, economy and their children and grandchildrens future as free men and women in a Republic.

I would like to provide the court and aforementioned politicians, and anyone following the court proceedigns with Chris's Crash Course, as a -- hopefully exponential function education viral resource -- and accordingly submit it into the Court Record as evidence, for the public's concern on these issues.

Lara (JMCSwan)

Re: Now Chris Martenson needs YOUR help!

I stumbled upon this website when someone watched my youtube video on the bailout. They commented on my video by thanking me for the info and said I should check out chrismartenson.com. I ended up watching the crash course and became addicted, ever since I have stopped by this site once a day to go along with my other research on the economy. I plan on including the link on my next video.

 My suggestion is to do the same. Respond to youtube vids, articles, and chat threads that are in line with the topics discussed here and plug this site. Put the links in your uploaded videos, hyperlink with all emails you send out. I stand behind Chris more than I do any candidate of any party. My video's get around 500-800 hits, that's quite an audience (albiet a small one). Many people get much more than that, people read the comments section, I know that I do, so post the link to this site. By the way, I threw a little money in the offering plate chris as it was passed around and I hope you make use of it while it still has value, haahahha.
