The People’s Emergency Briefing film was shown at Heathlands Community Centre, Blofield Heath, on Thursday evening, 2nd July. It had been organised by the Hemblington church eco-team, a small group of people working towards a more sustainable and ecologically friendly approach to life within the church and the local community. 70 people watched the film, with the majority staying on for group discussions concerning their reaction to the film, what struck them most or inspired them, their thoughts on what a local response might look like, and how people might use their skills and resources to contribute to a local response.
The eco-team will be reviewing the feedback from attendees and considering what can be proposed locally. This might include trying to ensure that more people understand the threats that climate change is bringing and what approaches may be made to mitigate against them.
