Free screening of the film 'The People's Emergency Briefing' on climate change, followed by a discussion led by council experts, for Hull residents aged 16 and over.
The People's Emergency Briefing comes to Hull Guildhall on Tuesday 24 November, a community screening of the National Emergency Briefing film. It's a two-part evening: the film first, then a discussion session to follow.
The screening opens with the 50-minute film, which sets out the scale, causes and impacts of climate change both now and in the future. Once the credits roll, the room opens up for a discussion led by council experts. The idea is to give residents a chance to find out how to stay resilient and what action individuals and households can take, as well as how the council is working towards ambition five of its Community Plan, which responds to the climate and nature emergency. If you're coming, you can also sign an open letter to lobby the government.
Cllr Charles Quinn, portfolio holder for the environment, puts it plainly: Hull is more susceptible to the impacts of climate change than most places, so it's important the council and the city recognise the urgency of acting. That's the context the whole evening sits in.
