People’s Emergency Briefing

"We are one species on one planet with one big problem and one last chance to sort it out" – Chris Packham

The People’s Emergency Briefing  is a nationally coordinated film and discussion initiative exploring the climate and nature crisis and what it means for communities, services and long term resilience.

Hosted by Chris Packham CBE, the film brings together leading UK experts in climate science, health, food security, economics, national security and nature. It includes footage from the landmark National Emergency Briefing held in Westminster for MPs and peers, and presents a clear, evidence based overview of the risks facing everyday life in Britain.

The initiative is explicitly non partisan and is supported by a wide range of national and local organisations.

This special free community screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing is being brought to you by Biggar Area Climate Care and Biggar Community Garden, with funding from the Lanarkshire Climate Action Hub.
