The National Emergency Briefing

In November, ten of the UK’s leading experts presented a briefing to an invited audience of over 1,200 politicians and leaders from business, culture, faith, sport and the media with the latest implications of the climate and nature crisis. They covered climate science, tipping points, extreme weather, national security, health, food security and the economy.

Now, a new film, ‘People’s Emergency Briefing’ has been made, with highlights from the national briefing, and responses from some well known Brits. Local people are arranging screenings in their communities, workplaces, schools, churches… anywhere and everywhere. WEll over 1600 screenings have been arranged nationwide! Screenings are followed by a community discussion to explore our response and the way forward. One of the most common comments after the film is ‘I finally understand the wider picture’

Here in Lewes constituency an active local group has already shown the film twice in Seaford and Lewes, East Dean, Rodmell and Ringmer. Screenings in Seaford, Lewes, Polegate, Newhaven and Peacehaven are coming up:
