Join the Food Law and Policy Clinic for a conversation with Margiana Petersen-Rockney, Assistant Professor in the Franke College of Forestry and Conservation at the University of Montana and author of Farmers and Climate Change: Agricultural Adaptation in an Age of Rural Polarization.

In the book, Petersen-Rockney explores how farmers and ranchers are bearing the burdens of climate change despite being resistant to climate science and a changing society. The conversation will focus on how farmers are managing the risks and impacts of climate change in this era of political tension.
