In Memory of Polly Higgins

OUR EARTH PROTECTOR HAS GONE, MAY WE KEEP HER WORK GOING

Polly Higgins was a woman who dedicated her life to saving this planet, due to a nasty cold which led into a breakdown on her lungs, she left us April 21st 2019.

Let us keep her memory going by keeping her work going saving this wonderful planet. Ecocide is a global law that will make any harm done to life and planet a crime, let us join and become an Earth protector and makes sure it happens.

My first show with Polly

Ecocide Law sits at the heart of an emerging body of law called Earth Law. Earth law puts people and planet first and ensures the well-being of the whole Earth community. Earth Law recognizes that the Earth has natural limits and boundaries, and it is for us to ensure the welfare of the entire Earth Community by putting in place laws that protect future generations.

First show.

My second show with Polly

One-day Ecocide will be a crime. All of humanity depends on healthy ecosystems, so humanity has a choice: to either consciously prevent the extensive destruction of ecosystems or wait for the consequences to impact us directly. Either way, the status quo where Ecocide remains profitable and legal cannot continue forever, so a law preventing it is inevitable and will be with us soon.

ECO 18-17 ECOCIDE. Be a Legal Earth Protector with Polly Higgins

April 16, 2018July 11, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

ECO Solutions with Sara Troy and Polly Higgins, on air from April 24th

Let’s Get SYNC’D! series

ECOCIDE is: “loss or damage to, or destruction of ecosystem(s) of a given territory(ies), such that peaceful enjoyment by the inhabitants has been or will be severely diminished.”

A law prohibiting ecocide is not yet in place – but with your help as a legal Earth Protector, it can be.

However, the Law of Ecocide is more than a peace agenda. It will also trigger the ‘Green Economy’ and create millions of jobs, which will be good for people, societies, governments and shareholders everywhere.

It is happening, and we need to get behind it now.

THIS IS POLLY’S LAST INTERVIEW WITH SARA TROY AS SHE PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY LAST YEAR, SHE LEAVES BEHIND A MOVEMENT THAT WILL CARRY ON IN HER NAME.

Identifying ecocide as a crime is not new – Sweden’s prime minister Olaf Palme highlighted it at the time of the Stockholm Declaration in 1972, and it was further discussed in the decades preceding the drafting of the Rome Statute in the 1990s, though it did not make the final draft (except as applied specifically to wartime environmental harm).

It was researched in depth from 2009 by UK barrister Polly Higgins, who proposed it into the United Nations International Law Commission in 2010 as a fifth Crime Against Peace (as the Rome Statute crimes were called). She has advocated its crucial importance ever since. Polly Higgins has familiarised the world with the term “ecocide” in contexts ranging from international diplomatic circles to NGOs and cultural forums to journalists and grassroots activists, inspiring a worldwide awareness of the potential of a law of ecocide.

Mission LifeForce came into existence in 2017 to enable the next stage of putting that law in place by financing those States who can take it forward, while simultaneously creating the opportunity for

conscientious protectors standing up for frontline communities to be heard in a court of law
judiciary to recognise ecocide as a missing crime

Positive Living Vibrations with Sara Troy and her guest Polly Higgins. Aired from February 3rd

One-day Ecocide will be a crime. All of the humanity depends on healthy ecosystems, so humanity has a choice: to either consciously prevent the extensive destruction of ecosystems or wait for the consequences to impact us directly. Either way, the status quo where Ecocide remains profitable and legal cannot continue forever, so a law preventing it is inevitable and will be with us soon.

I Dare You to Be Great
by Polly Higgins

Internationally acclaimed Earth Lawyer, Polly Higgins, is journeying into greatness and inviting everyone of us to join her in collective affirmative action to save ourselves and the environment. !!
“We get to determine what the future is. Let’s engage in the big questions of our time, not the ones we already know the answers to” !!
World-renowned barrister and author Polly Higgins proposed to the United Nations in 2010 that ‘ecocide’ – the extensive damage or loss of the ecosystem of a given territory – be made a legally recognized crime. As a passionate advocate for more comprehensive environmental safeguards, since her campaign began, Polly has realized that great change, and thereby greatness, starts with the individual self and that before we can break the cycles of environmental harm playing out across the world, each one of us must break our own personal ecocides.

I Dare You to Be Great signals Polly’s rousing call to arms for all of the mankind to join her in one giant leap towards greatness.
A unique blend of memoir, academic treatise, and self-help, I Dare You To Be Great is divided into three critical stages. The first introduces the concept of what it is great and to achieve greatness; Higgins encourages her readers to reflect on their sense of self about the universe and to create their own personal vision of greatness. By identifying a distressing memory of childhood bullying, Polly reveals how in confronting and releasing such negative shackles she was able to open up to new experiences and accept her call to greatness. As people, we must celebrate,
improve and honor ourselves before we will be ready to transfer our self-care to that of the wider Earth community, ultimately extending personal compassion to ensuring the health and well-being of the Earth for future generations, thereby creating a more beautiful world for everyone.
Enlightening rather than didactic in her approach, Polly Higgins draws upon anecdotes from her personal and professional life with inspiring keys and tools for self-improvement that she has collected during her own journey.

I Dare You to be Great is warm, open and honest in its approach and will educate and move readers to tap into the often ignored sense that we are destined for – and capable of – something far greater. Polly heard and answered the call to greatness back in 2010 and has never looked back.
