ACCRA Nike Vapormax Flyknit Sale , Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- The cocoa industry has beenidentified as one of the major drivers of deforestation in Coted'Ivoire and Ghana, the world's first and second largest producersof the commodity that provides the raw material for chocolate, saida new report released here on Friday.


"In the world's two largest cocoa producing countries, IvoryCoast (Cote d'Ivoire) and Ghana, the market created by thechocolate industry has been the primary driver behind thedestruction of forests Nike Vapormax Sale ," said the report, published by MightyEarth, a U.S.-based environmental protection organization.


It said regulated and protected forests are vanishing at doublespeed in the two West African countries.


According to the report, for years, the world's major chocolatecompanies have been buying cocoa grown through the illegaldeforestation of national parks and other protected forests Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Utility , inaddition to driving extensive deforestation outside of protectedareas.


In Cote d'Ivoire, many of the country's national parks andprotected areas have been entirely or almost entirely cleared offorest and replaced with cocoa growing operations, the reportsaid.


In neighboring Ghana, 291,254 acres of protected areas werecleared between 2001 and 2014.


During the same time Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit SE , Ghana lost about 10 percent of its entiretree coverage, and approximately one quarter of that deforestationwas connected to the chocolate industry.


"Without action, Ghana stands to lose all remaining forestsoutside its national parks in the next decade," the reportwarned.

The report urged governments and the cocoa industry to poolresources to monitor deforestation and enforce compliance with zerodeforestation policies.

South Africa captain Jean de Villiers has ended his international career after a fractured jaw ruled him out of the rest of the World Cup.


The 34-year-old center has 109 caps Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Moc 2 , the fourth-highest in South African rugby, and has captained them 37 times.


"It's never nice getting injured and knowing that I've played my last game for South Africa. It's quite sad," De Villiers told a press conference.


De Villiers suffered the latest of a series of injury blows that have blighted his international career in South Africa's 46-6 win over Samoa on Saturday.


"As I got replaced and I was running off, I knew it was my last," he said.


"I won't get this opportunity again. -Having played for the Springboks for 13 years now Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Moc , you've been through so much, you've made so many good friends, you've seen so many good things, you never think that it would end like this."


De Villiers said he broke the news to teammates on Saturday night and returned to South Africa on Monday for probable surgery on his jaw.


Springbok warrior


"It's happened now and I'm very grateful for the time that I've had in the Springbok jersey and I wish the team the very best," he said.


"I told them last night Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Shoes , as a former Springbok now, I wish them the very best and I'm supporter number one now."


South Africa coach Heyneke Meyer hailed De Villiers as "a warrior" and one of the country's greatest players.


"The way in which he never gave up fighting to overcome his last serious knee injury reminded me again how much of a warrior he is and how highly he regarded the Springbok jersey," said Meyer, whose own position remains under threat after South Africa's defeat by unheralded Japan at this World Cup.


"He will go down as one of the greatest Springboks ever and in my eyes he is probably one of the best captains in the history of world rugby, who always put the team first and gave his time for any player Cheap Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit , young or old without ever changing who he is.


"To see the emotions in the team room when he said his good byes to his -teammates made me realize how well-liked he is, by every person in this squad, but also most other people in the worldwide rugby fraternity."


All Blacks hooker Keven Mealamu said, "I feel disappointed for him. I understand how hard he worked to get back in time for the Rugby World Cup. I really feel for the guy, he's going to be sorely missed in that team."


Sport Minister Fikile Mbalula speaking after De Villiers was ruled out of the World Cup but prior to his Test retirement hailed him as an inspirational leader and patriot.


"He was a soldier that was injured on duty trying to do better for his country Cheap Nike Air Vapormax , his family and everybody," said the minister.


World Cup miseries


Despite being considered one of the world's best centers, injuries have -repeatedly stopped De Villiers tasting -success on the World Cup stage.


He barely made this World Cup after returning from a long layoff from a serious knee injury suffered against Wales in November.


And Saturday was the second time in two months that De Villiers has broken his jaw. He snapped the other side of his jaw in South Africa's historic home defeat by Argentina in August.


De Villiers missed the 2003 World Cup because of a shoulder injury which he sustained on his return from a serious knee injury he suffered just seven minutes into his Test debut in 2002.


In 2007 he injured his biceps in the first game and missed the rest of the tournament which South Africa won.


De Villiers and Meyer have faced fierce criticism at this World Cup, where South Africa lost their opening Pool B match 34-32 to Japan.


De Villiers said he had just experienced probably "the toughest week of my rugby career." But he still believed South Africa could win the World Cup for the third time.


"We've still got a massive game this weeke.
