In November 2025, the National Emergency Briefing brought together leading experts to present the latest evidence on the climate and nature crisis to politicians and other influential people in Westminster. That evidence is now on the public record. The next step is to take this vital message across the UK in the form of our People's Emergency Briefing film. The aim is to bring together people from across local communities to hear the evidence and discuss how to respond - together with their MP.
The People's Emergency Briefing is a new film from the National Emergency Briefing, a public information initiative to ensure the UK is clearly and honestly briefed on the climate and nature crisis. Building on the landmark National Emergency Briefing held in Westminster, the film features footage from the event with reactions from members of the public and some more familiar faces.
Following the screening there will be a Q&A session with local environmental interest groups, who will also gather prior to the screening.

Experience the adventures of an unusual protagonist, a chicken, who becomes an unwitting witness to human greed, smuggling and the migrant crisis.
This compelling documentary with an artistic heart blends science, music and storytelling to celebrate our relationship with nature. It explores the UK, meeting diverse people whose voices, framed by the four seasons, challenge our human-centred view to show us how to reconnect with the planet.
The People’s Emergency Briefing (12A)
