The People's Emergency Briefing Film
A full documentary film building on the National Emergency Briefing is due for release this spring. It will feature footage from the event, with reactions from members of the public and some more familiar faces.
The film will present the national implications of climate and nature breakdown - along with positive actions - into a single, accessible account designed for screening in communities across the UK.
Taking the Briefing Nationwide
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.
Why it matters now
The implications of climate and nature breakdown affect every constituency in the country, from health and food systems to infrastructure, security to economic stability. With the evidence now firmly established, the film enables communities across the UK to engage directly with the same information presented in Westminster, together with their MP, local journalists, councillors and other local influential people.
A National Community Screening Programme
The film will be shared primarily through community screenings. Some people will host local screenings. Others can help by encouraging others in their network to host screenings.
Each event will be followed by a structured discussion, supported by guidance from the NEB team to ensure conversations remain constructive and focused on solutions, and to help people process the information emotionally. By enabling communities and decision-makers to engage with the same evidence together, the screening programme aims to create informed dialogue at local and national level.
Host a Community Screening
Organise a screening in your constituency and invite your MP to attend. We provide guidance and digital materials including a facilitated discussion guide and designs for leaflets and posters.
