In July 2025, the Government made the first-of-a-kind statement on the State of Climate and Nature, supported by parliamentary debate. We have since set out our priorities within the revised Environmental Improvement Plan, alongside the ‘Energising Britain’ public participation plan. This sets out how we will ensure people have the facts and understand the scale, pace of change and benefits of climate and nature action, on which we will continue to speak clearly.

Broadcasters in the UK operate independently of Government and decisions about national screenings are a matter for their editorial judgement.
