I asked Naomi Klein to explain The Leap Manifesto. NAOMI KLEIN: So, in Canadaâweâre Canadianâwe have been part of a process of bringing different social movements together to try to not just talk about what we donât want.You know, we donât want more pipelines.A lot of the polling in Canada is showing that people donât want just gradual, incremental change,â says Naomi Klein, author of âThis Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate.â âTheyâre ready for more dramatic change. And this is why weâre seeing more support for The Leap Manifesto.
Brain death is the total and irreversible loss of all brain function and the circumstance under which the donation of vital organs most commonly takes place. This photo illustration shows an angiogram of a brain at left with blood flow and brain at right without blood flow as it would be seen in a brain dead patient.
There is very little research on just how long the body of a brain-dead person can be maintained. The discussion of brain death dates back to the 1950s in France with six patients who were kept alive for between two and 26 days without blood flow to the brain.n Jahi's case, three doctors have concluded that she is brain-dead. However, the heart's intrinsic electrical system can keep the organ beating for a short time after a person becomes brain-dead â in fact, the heart can even beat outside the body, Greene-Chandos said.
