. Large swathes of apparel-producing areas in Asia will be underwater by 2030, an analysis released on Friday (July 16) showed, threatening thousands of suppliers with submersion unless they relocate to higher ground. The analysis, which overlaid maps of rising sea levels onto factory locations, warns that the problem of rising sea levels is receiving little attention from those leading sustainability efforts in the sector. The analysis was produced by two Cornell researchers as part of a paper commissioned by the International Labour Organisation (ILO). “Rapid increases in sea level rise and heat that will affect many of Asia’s apparel workers directly have received little attention,” authors Jason Judd and J. Lowell Jackson of Cornell research centre the New Conversations Project wrote.
