Question

How would a flood be a limitation for synthetic polymers that rely on natural rubber in its production?

Answer 1

A flood can limit the availability of a material that is used to make synthetic polymers.

If rubber trees were destroyed in a flood, the availability of natural rubber would decrease.

Answer 2

A flood, if it hits the environment of the natural rubbers, would destroy how the rubber is being produced. to have a large amount of limitation, the flood would destroy a large percentage of rubber trees. This natural rubber is needed to make synthetic polymers. Without the rubber (because of damages to it's ecosystem through the flood), there would be a limited supply, and a substancial drop on synthetic polymers.
