Decarbonizing Denim: The Denim Supply Chain Speaks Up

Juli 19, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm CEST

Meaningful decarbonization action requires putting some hard questions on the table. For instance, does it make sense to push all companies into setting science-based targets if those companies do not have access to renewables or have high thermal energy requirements? What is the most effective way to distribute responsibility for a collective goal to individual companies? How do we do this in a way that’s also equitable? How could “Global North” legislation more effectively support denim suppliers with their decarbonization? 

This candid conversation will explore the critical ethical questions needed to unlock meaningful decarbonization action. Kim is the Intelligence Director of the Transformers Foundation and co-author of their forthcoming research report on the barriers to denim’s decarbonization. She has also facilitated high-level workshops for the UN Fashion Charter related to decarbonization and has hosted a series of private Supplier-Meet-Ups focused on decarbonization.
