From NEB HQ: 24.07.2026


"We wanted to let you know that the film has just hit 2,400 registered screenings across the UK (and beyond!).


The initiative couldn’t be more timely: record heatwaves, unprecedented ‘firewaves’, and warnings of catastrophic UK food system collapse are a stark reminder that we are in a national emergency.

Over the last few months, the film has helped change the national conversation. It’s had major press coverage, mentions in Parliament, and even been discussed by film critics Kermode and Mayo


A total of 131 MPs have called for a televised emergency briefing and the ripples from screenings are now spreading across all sectors of society with major national companies screening to their staff. 


Please join the BIG NEB UPDATE on Friday 31 July to hear more about what we have achieved and what’s next for us – including updates on screenings for schools, councils, workplaces, and more – plus details on how you can get involved.

With new screenings still being registered, the People’s Emergency Briefing will run through the rest of 2026, at least. The national team’s new Community Organising Lead, Jamie Russell, is offering bespoke support. Please get in touch with him if you have any questions. If you haven’t already hosted a screening, now is a great time to register. There is also a WhatsApp community for hosts run by Climate Emergency Centres UK.

And finally, The Rest Is Politics podcast has just launched a new series exploring how nature loss has become a national security threat to the UK. The series focuses on the suppressed Joint Intelligence Committee report and is hosted by former Green Party MP Caroline Lucas. It also features several of the experts from the National Emergency Briefing including Lieutenant General Richard Nugee and Professor Paul Behrens.
