このコンテンツについて
The tires you just changed on your bike or your car, your baby’s bottles, the soles of your shoes, medical supplies, or even the condoms you use: all of these products contain latex. Latex is natural rubber, an essential component of many everyday objects. But have you ever thought about the impact of these products on deforestation in Africa?
The continent accounts for 11% of the global production of latex with a major player which is Côte d’Ivoire: it is the 4th largest world producer and represents 80% of the African latex production. The other African producing countries are mainly in West and Central Africa: they are Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Guinea Conakry, Cameroon and Gabon.
How is the sector structured, who are the players in Africa, and have they already made strong social and environmental commitments? Finally, what are the challenges? This is what we will explore in this new episode.
