1. A televised national emergency briefing

The Government should deliver a prime-time, multi-channel televised national emergency briefing to the nation, launching a major public engagement plan to cut through disinformation.

2. National emergency response

The Government should launch a science-led national emergency response to climate and nature breakdown showing the same leadership and determination as in WW2 and during the financial crisis.

3. Help lead stronger global action

International climate conferences have failed to deliver the scale of global action needed. By taking steps (1) and (2), the UK can establish the credibility required to help lead by example to help drive coordinated global action.

People’s Emergency Briefing - Green Christian Workshop

“PEB is a public information film that is urgent, clear and watchable. It will include some of the content of the briefing itself, alongside additional personal interviews with our experts. The aim is for the film to be emotionally engaging rather than data-heavy”.

  • Create a team

  • Find a venue (ideally when your MP is available)

  • Publicise

  • Show the PEB film (50min) - immediately followed by a structured discussion (1 hour). Ideally before end Sept.

“Aim is to inform every MP about the crisis, cutting through the disinformation and lobbying that they receive, so that their policy decisions will more accurately reflect the risks we face.

These local screenings will ensure the briefing breaks through government and media silence, with an irresistible call that the whole country should hear this vital information. For national resilience to be built, the public must first understand the threat.”

BUT I NEED A LOCAL TEAM

One way to find others to create a local team

  1. Sign up at Zero Hour, who build (or add you to) a postcode team via a WhatsApp group.

  • Zero Hour can publicise it via their segmented mailing list (so constituency + any other relevant constituencies if you’re on the edge of a constituency boundary) and via WA groups
