An orderly methodHere we use the SATERPLIDE acronym to prompt the scan for future events and
their consequences. The segments are:
• Social (See Maslows’s Hierarchy of Human Needs)• Approach (First response to an issue)• Technology (Applying our innovation to reliable approaches)• Economic (The benefits in productivity from technology)• Resources (Human and Natural, required and consumed)• Political (Ownership rights of tribes to resources)• Legal (Administration of political resolutions)• International (Resolution of international differences)• Demographic (Population shift to better circumstances)• Environment (Built by Humans and by Nature, our impact)
