on the climate and nature crisis
The Westminster Briefing
Last November, ten of the UK’s leading experts briefed an invited audience of over 1,200 politicians and leaders from business, culture, faith, sport and the media.
The briefing set out the implications of climate and nature breakdown for health, food systems, national security and the economy.

Taking the evidence beyond Westminster
A full documentary from the briefing is now in production, expected for release in April. It will bring the science and national implications together in one compelling film. Once released, it will be available for community screenings across the UK.
Community screenings will enable MPs and other decision-makers to see the same evidence - on the record - as those briefed in Westminster.
If you are in a position to encourage others to host screenings via your networks, could you help by becoming an NEB Connector?
“It was shocking, but it also showed a way forward. With immediate policy action we can still avoid the worst. The window is small, but it exists.”

“The National Emergency Briefing could not be more timely. The science is moving fast, and every year the risks become clearer. Britain has led before, and we must lead again - not with words, but with action to protect our people, our prosperity and our children’s future. But first, all policymakers must ensure they are fully informed."
