National Emergency Briefing Screening
National Emergency Briefing Screening – 24 June, 7.30pm at Seth Ward Community Centre (Bunters Suite)
The National Emergency Briefing was an event that took place in London last year, hosted by Chris Packham, and featured climate scientists and experts from other fields sharing an honest account of the changes that are happening with climate and nature, including the latest evidence on extreme weather, food security, health and the cost of living and what the implications are for everyday life in the UK.
Councillor Sue Nicholls is hosting a screening of the film (as local councillor and chair of the Buntingford Community Project) based on the event. Following the 50 minute screening, there will be an open discussion about the issues raised and what the changes might mean for the future of our local community. Also, an opportunity to discuss what we can all do, both individually and collectively, to help make a difference. Chris Hinchliff MP will be attending the event and it is hoped that Ben Crystall, leader of East Herts Council will also be able to attend.
Tickets are free and available at the following link.
