Saline and Steelend Environment Group are hosting a National Emergency Briefing film on nature and Biodiversity loss and its effects on the UK's national security, including the potential for huge food system disruptions. Please encourage your local representatives https://members.parliament.uk/member/5275/contact Shirley-Anne Somerville and , to attend a screening either here or in Holyrood. While we are not set up as a campaigning organisation, we believe people should know the facts about the climate emergency to make clear decisions.

If other groups in Dunfermline or West Fife want to host a screening, we can lend our projector from our Tool Library to member groups of Dunfermline Greenspace, or to FCCAN members, for free.

Fife Communities Climate Action Network and Fife Climate Hub

A facilitated community discussion is set to follow the screening
