One of the emerging ethical issues of our time is organ donation. Here is an interesting story on how Steve Jobs induced the state of CA to become pro active in this endeavor. The truth of the matter is that organs need to be harvested quickly when someone dies. The most occurring incident is fatal vehicle accidents. At present one could volunteer to become an organ donor when renewing a driver license but no one is pushing it. They are now. 

Hopefully this is an idea that will catch on in other states.
