Polly was scheduled to film a talk for the Findhorn Foundation’s Climate Change and Consciousness Conference in April 2019, but when she knew she would not live to do so, she nominated her right-hand woman and Stop Ecocide: Change the Law campaign co-founder, Jojo Mehta, to speak in her place. With a no-holds-barred introduction from Extinction Rebellion co-founder Gail Bradbrook, a mere few days after her departure from this dimension, Polly’s courageous and inspiring legacy is powerfully carried forward as she passes the baton to all of us.
Polly’s funeral takes place Friday, 3 May in her hometown of Stroud and she will be laid to rest in the beautiful Slad Valley where she lived.
Pauline Helène (Polly) Higgins, barrister and climate change activist, born 4 July 1968; died 21 April 2019
