How do I know what to major in when I go to college?

As an incoming senior in high school, I am like most other students who don't know what they want to major in in college. I enjoy business and computer science, so that is most likely what I am interested in. My question is how did you find out what you wanted to major in? Were there any events or extracurriculars that helped you decide? And if you don't like your major, how easy or hard is it to switch over?

How to decide what i'd like to do in terms of college and highschool?

I'm currently in between the four majors I'd like to do, which are architecture, physics, engineering, and astrology. I'm most fond of all and enjoy looking into all of them but I'm at a standstill at what Id like to pursue when I go into highschool. However, I can admit I'm a bit young to think about it, but I think it's beneficial to come into highschool with a particular mindset and a game plan. Also, some tips for highschool would be very appreciated.

What do I need to study in college to get into a career involving renewable energy?

I am interested in the renewable energy sector because I think it will be the next big thing given how the US government is actively invested with new legislation. I want to help develop the technology to capture renewable energy; however, I don't know what to major in. If you can, could you also share how difficult this field is to get into and are there things that I should keep in mind.
