I hope he buys the Amazon Rainforest and names it the Amazon Amazon Rainforest, and I think there's a reasonable chance of it happening if it becomes a big social media thing.

As a private owner of the land he can stop all deforestation, allow only scientists and other specialists in the land, and also make some sick branding opportunities.

Let's push to get these promises out into action.
