The British government must be honest about the scale of the threat posed by climate and nature breakdown, researchers have said, after nine out of 10 people surveyed after watching a briefing on the issue felt more motivated to act.
Last November, in the “first-of-its-kind national emergency briefing”, nine experts gave stark assessments in Central Hall in Westminster of the scale of the changes needed in the UK to adapt to the rapidly changing climate and ecological landscape.
The team behind the event crowdfunded to produce the People’s Emergency Briefing, a film outlining the urgent threats that climate and nature breakdown pose to food security, the economy and public health.
