A free public screening of 'The People’s Emergency Briefing', a film discussing the biodiversity and climate emergencies, will take place at the Phoenix Cinema in East Finchley on Wednesday 14th October. The event, which begins at 6pm, is organised by the Phoenix Cinema in collaboration with local groups including Barnet Climate Action Group and Barnet Friends of the Earth.
The film presents evidence for the need to address climate and nature crises, detailing the benefits of immediate action. These include potential reductions in the cost of living, the creation of new employment opportunities, and improvements to public health, air, soil, and water quality. The film also argues that acting promptly is economically sensible, while delays will incur greater financial and lifestyle costs.

Community Discussion and Official Support
The screening follows a recent public viewing at Claremont Primary School NW2, attended by approximately 40 people, which included a community discussion. Participants shared their reactions, with some feeling motivated to take action and others considering how to involve more individuals. The consensus was that the film should be widely seen.
A local councillor who attended the Claremont Primary School screening suggested that the film would be valuable for councillors and council officers. Furthermore, a Barnet MP stated that the entire UK parliament should view the movie, according to reports from the Barnet Post.
