National Emergency Briefing Film Screening & Discussion
Teignmouth Science Café invites you to a screening and discussion of the National Emergency Briefing, a powerful 45-minute film documenting a landmark event held at Westminster’s Central Hall in November 2025.
The event brought together ten leading UK scientists and experts to present clear, evidence-based insights on the escalating climate and nature crisis facing the UK. Their aim was to reset the national conversation by explaining the scale of the risks and the level of response required.
The film will be shown with an introduction by Chris Packham, followed by an opportunity for discussion.
