The People’s Emergency Briefing

Run time: 15.30 – 17.00


The climate crisis threatens to impact all aspects of British life, from national security to the food supply – but solutions do exist. Last year, 1,200 UK leaders heard the latest evidence on the climate and nature crisis in Parliament. Now it’s your turn to be briefed. 
Come along to the screening of The People’s Emergency Briefing, a film that sees Chris Packham bring together leading UK scientists, along with local communities, to delve into the climate crisis, what it means for the way we live and what can be done about it. Then join the debate in a panel discussion with leading researchers and activists who will explore the science behind the headlines, and how our communities and government can address these national challenges to improve lives now and into the future.
