| abstractNote | Editorial critiquing the United States' Mongolia Third Neighbor Trade Act, which would allow duty-free imports of Mongolian cashmere products, as potentially encouraging unsustainable cashmere production. "In its rush to expand trade with Mongolia, the United States must ensure that it doesn’t inadvertently disrupt the efforts of those already working to create change in Mongolia’s cashmere production. If not carefully managed, Americans’ demand for cashmere could contribute to the destruction of Mongolia’s natural environment—leaving the country’s herders with only fleeting wealth and permanent loss of their ancestral lands." |
