Answer:

C. lumber

Step-by-step explanation:

China is the world's first importer, exporter and consumer of wood and also the largest responsible for depleting rainforests, a British NGO said. This is because they have already depleted their own reserves due to abusive deforestation.

Therefore, Chinese companies have sought the material in other countries, especially in Africa, such as Madagascar, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Democratic Republic of the Congo.
