None of them are about technology, though.

What I personally very much would like to see is practical polymer
photovoltaics and domestic and vehicular fuel cells, whether hydrocarbon 
reforming, direct methane, direct methanol or otherwise.

This would truly change the face of earth as we know it.
However, this will take another decade, or maybe even two.
(It tells something about the human primate that people
choose not to pursue electromobiles and fuel cells (1889 Ludwig Mond
and Carl Langer).
