It presents the national implications of climate and nature breakdown in a single, accessible, non-partisan account, helping audiences process the information on a more human level. And will deliver the frank facts about the threats, but also the enormous benefits to our economy, resilience and quality of life of Government leading on genuine emergency action.
JOIN A NATIONAL MOVEMENT ...
The Wood Green film forms part of a wider UK (and international, increasingly) programme of screenings designed to help communities engage with the climate and nature crisis.
It is based on the November '25 National Emergency Briefing in Westminster (featured by ITV, Channel 4 and The Times), with appearances from naturalist Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden and a range of voices from across the UK.
Said Packham: "I’d encourage people everywhere to attend a screening of The People’s Emergency Briefing. This new film creates exactly the kind of honest local conversation we now urgently need, both about the threat from climate and nature breakdown, but also about what we can do, together with our politicians, to build a better future.”
HAVE YOUR SAY ...
After the film there will be a 45-minute, open discussion about what it means for our community and what we can do locally to support, including encouraging local MPs to back the Parliamentary Call for a televised emergency briefing on the climate and nature crisis.
PRESENTED BY ...
This community screening is presented as part of Haringey's Go Green Eco Urban Festival by PEB Haringey: a collective of local community and activism groups including 4U2 Magazine, Muswell Hill Sustainability Group, Haringey Climate Action and Muswell Hill Climate Action.
