It illustrates research sources that lead to uncertainty factors in the climate change debate and measurement models. The screenshot shows a simple Southbeach|MyCreativity rule set to question the model. (The model is illustrative only, and does not represent in any way the full richness of the Outsights research)

Fear of steep energy bill prices reported by Ofgen UK

This model illustrates high level themes in a BBC news item about a new Ofgen report, predicting high prices for energy in the UK, unstable supply and proposing four possible scenarios/outcomes for the environment, UK security and consumers. The Southbeach creative output panel lower middle is providing best practice questions from a technique called Backcasting. This is one of 21 techniques included in the Best Practices Toolkit of the Horizon Scanning Centre (HSC) of the UK government Foresight program (www.foresight.gov.uk). The full toolkit is available here: http://hsctoolkit.tribalctad.co.uk/
