World-Changing Ideas Summit 2014: Ezekiel Emanuel
Ezekiel Emanuel has said he doesn’t want to live past 75. He explains why he thinks extending later life is wrong.
Physician and bioethicist Ezekiel Emanuel caused controversy earlier this month when he wrote an essay for the Atlantic on how he hoped he would die at 75. At BBC Future’s World-Changing Ideas Summit in New York he told Jon Sopel why he thinks this, what the response has been, and the challenge he is setting to anyone who thinks he is wrong.
