Will Richardson presents a new climate film that connects climate change to business concerns like health, food supply, and national security, framing it as risk management. The film features Lord Deben, Chris Packham, and Michael Mann arguing that climate action is both scientifically necessary and economically rewarding. It's designed for group viewing to build shared understanding among business leaders and community members.

Hey, thanks so much for listening. I would love to be able to help you more on what it is that you are listening to and why you're listening to, to me. If you could click on the link in the show notes, that would be awesome because it will help me define what it is that we should be talking about on this podcast. 10 of the UK's leading experts walked into Westminster last November and delivered one of the most evidence-based climate briefings this country has ever seen. Now it is a film, and here is what it gets right about business. First, it connects climate to things business actually care about: health systems, food supply chains, national security, and economic stability. This is not an abstract environmentalism. It is risk management. Second, it makes the case that emergency-level action is also an economic opportunity. The briefing includes voices like Lord Deben, Chris Packham CBE, and Professor Michael Mann, and they are clear the science demands action and the economics reward it. Third, it is designed to be watched together. Communities, business leaders, local MPs in the same room, hearing the same evidence. That shared understanding is where real change starts. We are hosting a private screening at the Garden Cinema in London on the 6th of May. Doors open at 5:30 PM, film's at 6, followed by questions and answers, drinks, and conversation. If you work in business and sustainability, we would love to have you there.
