About the People's Emergency Briefing

The climate and nature crisis threatens all aspects of British life, from national security to the food supply. Despite the scale of the risks now facing the UK, there has been no comprehensive national emergency briefing delivered to the public by the Government.

On 27th November 2025, ten of the UK’s leading experts briefed an invited audience of more than 1,200 politicians and leaders from business, culture, faith, sport and the media in Westminster. This National Emergency Briefing set out the implications of climate and nature breakdown for health, food systems, national security and the economy, and did so on the public record.

Its purpose was to demonstrate what a clear, evidence-led national emergency briefing could look like and why it is needed. The question that follows is how this evidence is communicated to the public and translated into appropriate national action.

The People's Emergency Briefing is a film adaptation of The National Emergency Briefing that is available to be screened by workplaces and community groups across the UK.
