Episode 80: Protecting Puerto Rico’s Land
Ecological Organizations to Support Resources:
The Land Trust (Bianca discussed)
About the episode:
When journalist, Bianca Graulau started researching the situation around private, protected land being sold to big investors, she never imagined the story would become personal, so quickly. But that's exactly what happened when she found out the land behind her house had been sold for the development of luxury convos. She took the story to TikTok and it went VIRAL. In this convo, we talk to Bianca about the situation in PR - why so many investors are flocking to the island, what's going on with the convo around statehood, and we get a little history lesson on how PR got here in the first place.
