The Social, Economic & Environmental Justice Group of Oxford Quaker Meeting (SEE Justice) and Young Adult Friends warmly invite you to join us at 19:00 on Monday 6 September in the Meeting House to watch a recent film called Breaking Boundaries – the Science of our Planet, narrated by David Attenborough and featuring the Swedish environmental scientist Johan Rockstrom.

Booking for the film is through Eventbrite:

The film identifies the causes of Earth’s biodiversity collapse and how this crisis can still be averted. It’s a tough watch but not without hope – it’s clear about what we need to do to stay safely within the nine planetary boundaries. After the film there will be a time for reflection and discussion about action.

Following the recent publication of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report on the current state of the climate, and the concerns expressed at Britain Yearly Meeting, this will be a valuable opportunity for Oxford Friends to meet together to discuss the issues the film outlines and share ideas for how best, in our varied ways, we can respond to this unprecedented emergency.
