Batik is a traditional Indonesian method of using wax to resist water-based dyes to depict patterns and drawings on fabric. At the heart of the problem is Pekalongan’s overreliance on groundwater, groundwater is also essential to the city’s thriving batik industry. The over-extraction of groundwater has caused the city to sink at a rate of between 10cm to 15cm per year. (Photo by Garry Lotulung/NurPhoto)
