ABSTRACT
This chapter presents three exercises for the reader's use. The first two assess the perception of energy transformation, its likelihood, and its magnitude. The third exercise assesses the reader's present energy behavior, his or her likely future behavior, the extent to which changes in energy patterns would affect the life style of the reader, and the reader's level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction with these possible developments. Once one has grasped the magnitude of expected energy transformation, it is also useful to assess the impact the transformation is likely to have on one's own life. Readers may wish to add wrinkles of their own and create new exercises and scoring methods. How we interpret our energy future and how we will feel living it depend on the overall pattern of societal development.
