Excellent post, Martin. Had not heard of this idea. Will attempt to get access to the PBS A Brief History of the Future - just hope I can get it without charge as I can't afford subscriptions - I'm a boomer, too, and contrary to the general concept of 'boomers', not at all wealthy, quite the contrary.
I love that. In my quieter moments I have often thought into the future. Quantum mechanics will have us all communicating telepathically in not too many years, some of us will do it naturally, but then it will be made easy by brain implants or simple earpieces. Phones and Videos are already almost there, just the sizes and physical presence to change. Cities designed in real clouds hovering. People teletransporting as in Star Trek will happen. All those tunnels, trains, and structures will be torn down.
There are already people who can transport or connect telepathically through meditation. I use actual examples in my novels already.

Great article! The way we should all be thinking if we are to have a sustainable future; easier said than done... I enjoy PBS. Thank you for sharing!
Good column Martin. I very much like the PBS show you cited as well. Good perspective.
