Our Choice Extinction or Evolution: The Analyst and The Astrologer

Humans are great at making short-term, self-interested choices. We’re less skilled at making long-term decisions with the greater good in mind. This isn’t just an interesting quirk of human nature-it’s a fundamental flaw that threatens our very existence.

Join research analyst Richard Spitzer and economic astrologer Linda Schurman as they apply their disciplines to the question of humanity’s continued existence. Combining the study of historical astrological cycles with modern data analysis, they look to the future, together revealing core challenges to life as we know it. Is this life sustainable? We must now address the greatest choice our species has ever faced: evolution or extinction.

Schurman and Spitzer convincingly argue that the social, economic, technological, and environmental forces influencing our lives are intimately, intricately connected-and that events in one field have broad-reaching effects on the others.

The choices we have long made in these areas are harmfully impacting our way of life, our planet, and potentially our survival. Only by adopting a new means of decision making focused on the greater good can we reverse these effects. So, we have a choice: change thousands of years of habits, or risk everything.

Schurman and Spitzer believe we can change.
