• Abstract:

  Americans are confused. And it’s no wonder. Facts become mistakes, shortages become gluts, and cheap becomes expensive. A stop at the service station that used to be routine suddenly turns into a major project.We hope this magazine will answer some of your questions about how we got where we are today and how we can solve some of our energy problems. Our writers are experienced journalists who were asked to take an objective look at today’s energy landscape and to find out where our energy will come from in the future. Some were asked to research what others–businesses, communities and individuals–are doing to adjust to a changing energy scene.
  Surveys show that more and more Americans are starting to realize that they can make a real difference by taking simple steps to save energy. This is good news for the country. It is also good news for individual pocketbooks. There is simply no reason to spend a fortune on energy when it is possible to stay warm and keep mobile for much less.
  Of course, no one’s going to force you to do anything about the new realities of the energy puzzle. You can just keep paying up and hoping for abundant, cheap energy again. But before you decide to do that, do us just one favor: Read the next 40 pages.
