A National Emergency Briefing, attended by about 1,200 MPs, civil servants and others, last November, heard high powered experts talk about the data and trends for Extreme weather, Food security, Health, and the Cost of living. A film - The People's Emergency Briefing - was made from interviews by Chris Packham to distill what the experts said and PeCAN have organised a free showing on Thursday 21 May, at TPS, at 6:30pm. The 50 minute film will be followed by a panel discussion, that includes local MP Daman Hinds. Paul Parkin, a PeCAN Trustee, tells us more about its purpose as well as the progress PeCAN is making.
