Abstract
The town of San Pedro, located in south-western Côte d'Ivoire, benefits from numerous natural assets (forest, hydrographic, soil), which contrib ute to its economic and social development and the well-being of its population. This situation particularly contributes to the dynamism of industrial activities to the detriment of biodiversity resources. This study therefore aims to identify the negative effects of the expansion of industrial activities in this city on its biodiversity. The methodological approach used was based on a mixed analysis provided by documentary research and a field survey (interview, questionnaire and direct observation). The processing of the data collected in the field led to the conclusion that the expansion of industrial activities in the town of San Pedro has a strong impact on biodiversity resources. More than 70% of the economic actors and heads of households interviewed are speechless in the face of this alarming phenomenon in the locality.
