Rubber plantations expanded in Southeast Asia at the expense of tropical forests. Projected future demand will likely be met by plantations in New Guinea and West Africa. A new study attempts to reconcile this rubber expansion with biodiversity conservation.
橡胶种植园在东南亚扩张,侵占了热带森林。预计未来的需求可能将由新几内亚和西非的种植园来满足。一项新的研究试图调和这种橡胶扩张与生物多样性保护之间的关系。
