Like-Minded Megadiverse Countries

Diversity is no longer enough. Give me Megadiversity, as in like-minded megadiverse countries. They include poor D. R. Congo, rife with poverty, corruption and soldiers who scour through villages raping women. No ability to fix these problems, but committed to bio-diversity and taking the time to join the group of

Like-Minded Megadiverse Countries.

You heard about them first at the BallBounces.

To the tune of Money:

"The best thing is diversity"
But you can give it to the birds and bees
Meg-a-di-ver-sity -- that's what I want
That's what I want, that's what I want

And that's the way the Megadiversifying Ball bounces.
