People's Emergency Briefing -film screening followed by a facilitated discussion
The UK faces a growing climate and nature emergency. Yet most people have never been fully briefed on what it means for our lives, our economy and our future.
This new (50 min.) film from the National Emergency Briefing sets out the risks facing the nation - and the credible, positive responses available - in a clear and accessible account designed for screenings in communities across the UK.
What we need to know. What we need to do.
“This film isn't designed to sow fear, it is about hope. It's about knowledge as power and the opportunity for grown-up conversations so that our political leaders can no longer pretend it's business as usual, bow to industry lobbyists and vested interests and kick the can on decisions that affect our very survival through this decade and beyond. “
“I highly recommend attending or watching the National Emergency Briefing. It’s both alarming and deeply motivating.”
“This excellent film delivers frank facts about the threats from climate and nature breakdown – but also the enormous benefits if the government leads genuine emergency action to combat them… I will continue to press the Government to take the climate emergency seriously to create a pathway to a better future.”
