520 _aThe Democratic Republic of Congo has the natural resources the world needs it is crucial to satisfying our craving for the latest high-tech gadgets; the Inga Dam could light up all of Africa; while Congos farmers could feed a billion people. These realities are redefining the countrys strategic contribution to a globalized world. A resource paradise for some, the DRC is an environmental nightmare for others.
