WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE
Because there is no way to know in advance which forest sample will lead to a cancer drug or AIDS vaccine, most countries treat all research as potentially profitable.
In some countries,investigators must negotiate with several levels of government.
“The very people who are most able to get out there and discover and describe and quantify biodiversity are being impeded from doing it.
Everyone struggles with the paradox of it,” says Columbia University economic botanist Brian M. Boom.
