People's Emergency Briefing on 16th June
19:30 to 21:30
People’s Emergency Briefing: The Way Forward for the UK: nature & climate
A powerful film (50 mins) on increasing the UK resilience: food supply, water security, public health, economic stability, and national security. 16+
The Film by Leading scientists and experts features Chris Packham and Jennifer Saunders
Why come along?
The film is based on the National Emergency Briefing first presented to 1,200 MPs and national leaders in Westminster in November last year.
The film sets out where the UK is heading —across food supply, water security, public health, economic stability, and national security – and what we can do about it
This is an opportunity for you to watch it on a big screen, with your local community, here in Caversham.
People who've seen it say, “at last someone has finally laid it all out in a way that makes sense, and not only that, there is plenty we can actually do about it, and much of it is already happening on our doorstep.”
The film contributors include Lt General Richard Nugee CBE; Professor Hugh Montgomery OBE (UCL, Intensive Care Medicine); Professor Paul Behrens (Food system transformations); Professor Tim Lenton (Global Systems); Professor Hayley Fowler (Extreme rainfall and flooding); Professor Nathalie Seddon (Nature); Professor Kevin Anderson (Energy & Climate); Tessa Khan (Energy Transition); and Angela Francis (Economist WWF-UK)
What to expect
A warm welcome at the Gosbrook rd Methodist Church Caversham, the 50-minute film, and a short, friendly conversation afterwards about what it means for our community and what's already going on locally.
Bring a friend, a neighbour, your partner, grown up children, your parents. Everyone is welcome.
