Reflecting on 38 Years of Tomorrow's World and the Future of Construction Safety
This video takes a nostalgic look back at the iconic BBC show 'Tomorrow's World,' which aired from 1965 to 2003, as it explored emerging technologies and their potential impact on our future.
The hosts, including Raymond Baxter, James Burke, and Judith Hahn, sometimes accurately predicted technologies like personal computers and mobile communication, but missed others like the Internet and electric cars.
The show also examines how future predictions could have addressed trends in construction, highlighting the enduring challenges in safety despite advancements in legislation and technology.
Mark Anthony underscores the persistent issue of fatalities in the demolition and construction industry due to long-standing practices and calls for a fundamental shift towards safer working conditions.
