The man pushing the rain forest idea tried to sell the idea to the Iowa Environmental Council a couple of years ago. His reception was very cool. He is a very good sale man he could easily sell used cars. The Henry Doorly Zoo rain forest in Omaha is heavily subsidized by private donation and the City of Omaha. It is a part of a large complex that has about a million visitor a year. There is no way in Gods green earth that a stand alone rain forest in Coraville will make a profit. A smart investor would check this before spending a penney. This is bad project.
