National Emergency Briefing on climate & nature

National Emergency Briefing | The UK’s leading climate and nature experts brief MP's on the risks, impacts and solutions to the climate emergency


“We need a peace, but not a pause that provides Russia a chance to retreat and regroup,” the Kyiv-based human rights lawyer said. A durable settlement must include Nato-like guarantees for Ukraine, she added. theguardian.com/world/2025/nov…


“The reality and scale of the crisis means that small steps forward aren’t going to be enough. The world needs to start taking giant leaps to cut emissions, fast. … the consequences will be terrifying if words aren’t turned into action soon.” theguardian.com/environment/20…


“The changes in the energy system would be so significant from tripling renewables, doubling efficiency, reducing methane, that they would actually trigger the transition away from fossil fuels.” theguardian.com/environment/20…


“That (the forecast 2.6C temperature rise) all means the end of agriculture in the UK and across Europe, drought and monsoon failure in Asia and Africa, lethal heat and humidity,” theguardian.com/environment/20…


“We talk about “funding” as if it’s a favour. It’s not. It’s investment in imagination, in shared experience and in our national story. We invest in trains, hospitals, and clean water because we know they’re essential. Art is essential “ theguardian.com/artanddesign/2…


“With emissions still high, the voluntary pledge is clearly not enough to keep us from passing the fast-approaching tipping points” theguardian.com/environment/20…


“Cutting ECO could collapse the entire insulation industry, putting thousands of working people out of work in areas of the country that need good, skilled jobs & removing one of the best methods of permanently reducing energy bills for low-income families theguardian.com/environment/20…


“The Climate Analytics report says governments’ goals are inadequate and need to be rapidly revised, and calls for the rapid scaling-up of the use of renewable energy and electrification of key sectors including transport, heating and industry.” theguardian.com/environment/20…


“Floods will spread, communities will be destroyed, but there will always be a group of rich people and rich companies that will be able to protect themselves as the planet is being progressively destroyed.” How many times must we be told before we act? theguardian.com/environment/20…


This is a situation everyone should want to avoid. Horrifying to read of the problems left for occupiers and money accrued by unscrupulous firms operating under the previous government’s flawed scheme theguardian.com/environment/20…
