In 2023, I sought to explain to a parliamentary committee what a structural collapse of the global food system would look like, and why this this is plausible - even likely. I think the likelihood has just ratcheted up a notch. I beg you to read and understand. Thanks www.monbiot.com/2023/03/09/t...

Our film launches on 7th April. Hosted by Chris Packham, it features footage from the National Emergency Briefing along with reactions from the public. It's designed to be watched in communities across the UK along with their MP. To host a screening in your community: www.nebriefing.org/the-film

Perfect storm of climate and nature collapse, cyber security risks and geopolitical unrest means we are vulnerable to food shortages and that would be very bad indeed. www.theguardian.com/food/2026/fe...

This is the report I spoke of on #bbcaq just now - ministers tried to suppress it, were finally forced to release it after an FoI, but shamefully only published a redacted version. The first duty of Govt is to protect its citizens - that starts with being honest with us about scale of threat we face

This is the UK security assessment that the government tried to bury: ecosystem collapse is a national security threat. Read how you can turn knowledge into action, addressed by Caroline Lucas & Rupert Read: resilience.org/stories/2026... #ClimateCrisis #NationalSecurity #Adaptation #Resilience

“These latest attempts at environmental deregulation aim to tilt that balance ever closer to private gain, by fudging the lines and asserting that developer gain is the same thing as public good.” Excellent blog revealing the deceptions of dereg lobbyists. www.wildlifetrusts.org/blog/public-...

New poll finds Labour’s anti-nature rhetoric is costing voter trust. After Keir Starmer called environmental protections misguided, 19% of 2024 Labour voters are less likely to vote Labour again. Attacking wildlife protections is not a winning strategy. www.wildlifetrusts.org/news/anti-na...

This week's column is about something that's arguably more important than anything in the news, crucial as some of the other issues are. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When it rains, it now rains more. For those experiencing the flooding in south-west England, it is worth remembering that rainfall in winter has increased by about 25% overall. And, the rainfall has also become more intense: when it rains, it now rains more, increasing the risk of flooding.

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Given the widespread flooding we are seeing (again) after storm Chandra - it seems a good time to resurface this report from The Wildlife Trusts. We need nature based solutions to help us cope with the rapidly changing climate and we need them now. thefloodhub.co.uk/news/new-res...

This is a truly horrifying account of increasingly likely collapse of essential natural systems which would bring mass food shortages, price rises & global disorder. Commissioned from UK intelligence chiefs but scandalously suppressed by Govt, & sneaked out now while attention is elsewhere 👇

Devastating new report on imminent threats to the UK from global ecosystem collapse which "threaten UK national security and prosperity" The Gov should now stage a televised emergency briefing. The public have a right to know. MPs join the call: www.nebriefing.org/parliamentar... #NEB2025

"The UK does not have enough land to feed its population and rear livestock: a wholesale change in consumer diets would be required." re: the challenge of food security under nature collapse. from a UK govt national security assessment out today… assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0e...

Nature is essential to national security. New government assessment recognises the very real risks of ecological collapse. www.gov.uk/government/p...

Very concerning. The UK Government should respond by briefing the nation on the threats posed by climate breakdown and nature collapse - and the opportunities from acting. MPs please add your name to the Parliamentary Call for a televised emergency briefing. www.nebriefing.org/parliamentar...

Wow, pretty stark to see this graph of how the media are pushing net zero scepticism... just when we really really need the opposite. @carbonbrief.org @nebriefing.bsky.social @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

CASTING CALL: VOICE OF A NEW GENERATION 🎥 🌟 We’re looking for one person to star in a powerful new short film for Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust.

The English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill is a welcome shift of power closer to communities. But it doesn’t equip devolved authorities and communities to deal with the biggest risks they now face - we are asking for key amendments to make sure it does. www.hiwwt.org.uk/english-devo....

The Government has partially backed away from weakening Biodiversity Net Gain – but nature still loses out. Exempting developments under 0.2ha risks hollowing out one of England’s most important nature protections🐝🌱 1/4🧵

🚨 CODE RED FOR NATURE 🚨 We are worried that Gov will weaken Biodiversity Net Gain — or remove small sites entirely! Gutting BNG would: ❌ collapse investment ❌ stall nature recovery ❌ send a catastrophic signal to markets This cannot happen.

Instead of dancing to the tune of industry lobbyists they should listen to the science and the experts and adopt a nature-positive economic strategy rather than continue on this destructive path.

Nature-friendly farming support—cut. Biodiversity Net Gain—gutted. Habitat protections—weakened for development. But electoral consequences coming. A third of voters chose candidates based on a party's environmental policies. @craigbennett3.bsky.social

Labour seem determined to wreck what’s left of our natural world. So many broken promises. www.wildlifetrusts.org/news/nightma....

An important read for anyone who cares about nature in the UK!

"We cannot afford to choose between development and nature." Tessa Wardley from @theriverstrust.bsky.social calls out the government for perpetuating misinformation about nature as a blocker to development, using the 'fish disco' controversy as a prime example.⤵️

We're in a national emergency, but we're not talking or acting as if we are. This dangerous disconnect is why we convened the @nebriefing.bsky.social. Our goal was to reset the national conversation on the climate and nature crises, cutting through the sea of misinformation holding us back. ⬇️
