On September 3, MPs will meet to debate this summer's wildfires and drought, global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, and what they mean for UK national security. It follows an intelligence assessment on the risks nature loss poses to our food, energy and security.

This summer already tested the country's resilience: an emergency Cobra meeting on extreme heat, over 71% of England in drought, and our hottest summer on record.

The mandate for change has never been clearer - 1.6 million people took part in Great Big Green Week this June, with independent analysis from More in Common finding support spans the political spectrum.
