The People’s Emergency Briefing #PEBuk - Congleton Town Hall

📢 A special community screening: The People’s Emergency Briefing #PEBuk

What’s happening with climate and nature, and what does it mean for everyday life in the UK?

Join us for a screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing - an eye-opening 50-minute film bringing together nine leading UK scientists and experts with the latest evidence and why it matters for things like:

🌧️ Extreme weather
🍞 Food security
🏥 Health
💷 Cost of living

The film is based on the National Emergency Briefing in Westminster (featured by ITV, Channel 4 and The Times) with appearances from Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden, and a range of voices from across the UK.

After the film there will be an open discussion about what it means for our community and what we can do locally.

We will be inviting the local MP, Sarah Russell, and are optimistic that they will join with constituents for this important discussion about our future.

Zoe Robinson is a Professor of Sustainability in Higher Education. She has held roles as Director of the Institute for Sustainable Futures for three years, with responsibility for catalysing transdisciplinary research on real sustainability challenges, and University Director of Education for Sustainability for ten years, with responsibility for embedding sustainability across the curriculum and student experience at Keele University.
