1. this is your invitation
to back cast
from the planned
low energy future
to where we are now

2. “The best way

3. Brainstorm
envisage the future
how will we know our job

5. Explore
several solutions
develop and discuss these

6. Notice that at some point
there will be a disconnect
between our vision for the
future, and our current
trajectory

7. This tells us where we
need to innovate
how will it look
when the problems and
unsustainable aspects
are solved?

8. identify bottlenecks
develop and discuss these
continue to analyse and define the
pathways to our vision
