More about Polly Higgins
Polly
Higgins is a barrister, international lawyer and the award winning
author of Eradicating Ecocide. In April 2010 she proposed to the United
Nations to make Ecocide -
the
extensive damage to, destruction of or loss of ecosystems of a given
territory - the 5th Crime Against Peace, alongside Genocide, Crimes
Against Humanity, Crimes of Aggression and War Crimes. Since that
moment, she has been traveling around the world as a leading advocate
of Earth Law, speaking at the International Criminal Court, the European
Parliament, World Climate Summits and many other venues. Polly's
love for nature is matched by her heartfelt belief in the power of each
and everyone of us to create a better world. Helping individuals to
'dare to become great' and co-create a peaceful and sustainable world is
her life's mission.
"I'm supporting Polly Higgins on her big big idea of making Ecocide a Crime Against Peace. It should be a crime because what we call the environment is our universal body; the trees are our lungs, the rivers our circulation. If our trees didn't breathe we wouldn't breath; the air is our breath. It's our body that we are killing and that's why we need to make it a crime." -
