Episode 13- Esperanza Ortega-Tapia: Climate Change Driven Loss of Cultural Farming Heritage

27 Oct 2025

Description

In this very moving episode, Esperanza Ortega-Tapia describes her dream of being able to map the loss of farming land within BIPOC communities in the United States. A topic incredibly close to her heart, Esperanza not only takes us on a journey of loss of land but also, a loss of cultural heritage. Having grown up in New Mexico, picking chilies with her grandfather on their family land, she has experienced first hand how climate change and systematic oppression has driven many to abandon farming. Sadly this is a story all too common across the world, and one that Esperanza hopes she can tackle with her research int food systems.
