The People’s Emergency Briefing: film screening and panel discussion

In November, in the “first-of-its-kind, national emergency briefing”, nine experts gave stark assessments in Westminster Hall of the scale of the changes needed to adapt the country to the rapidly changing climate and ecological landscape at an event opened by TV presenter and environmentalist Chris Packham and chaired by professor and author Mike Berners-Lee. The team behind the event has since crowdfunded to produce the People’s Emergency Briefing, a 50-minute film hosted by Packham that outlines the urgent threats that climate and nature breakdown pose to food security, the economy and public health, and calls on government to stage a prime-time, televised emergency briefing on the climate and nature crisis. The Regenerative Design 2026 screening will take place at 6.30pm at the Building Centre on Store Street in central London and will be followed by a Q&A and panel discussion with experts from across the industry.
