This online article published by the broker contains information about the importance of phosphorus as well as possible consequences of the phosphorus peak. Since over 90% of the reserves of rock phosphates are controlled by only five countries, dependent countries will experience serious problems in terms of supplying phosphorus.

This case study is about a research in Accra (Ghana), which has identified important constraints to achieving an efficient and fully functioning faecal sludge management (FSM) chain, with consequences for both people and the environment. Opportunities to improve the institutional and operating environment are identified, particularly affecting engagement between the public and private sector and civil society.

Along with the usual topics, which includes the peak and the increasing scarcity of phosphorus, this paper also presents some possible solutions how the use of phosphorus can be minimised. As an example, a change in diets as well as recycling of phosphorus could help to reduce the amount of needed phosphorus.
