Only megadiverse countries can post in this thread

>The megadiverse countries are a group of countries that harbor the majority of the Earth's species and high numbers of endemic species. Conservation International identified 17 megadiverse countries in 1998.

>this arbitrary statistic makes my country better than yours
I hate the retarded fucking way spergs on this site frame their statements when trying to start discussions. Why are you losers always looking for a contest/argument?
You remind me of a guy I once knew who said the reason he didnt have a lot of friends was because he "always wins conversations".
I told him that the real reason he didnt have friends was because he thought conversations were supposed to have a winner.

>>52203175
Wrong.

Shut up dude, you are literall just a desert.

Also, places like "la rosilla" regularly reach -20C (-4 F, I believe).

Not really that cold, I know. But it's something.

Most of their "glaciers" are not real glaciers but snow that last for a few weeks. They have a weird definition of what a glacier is.

He said no one lives there and you answer to that

They are Icecaps in mountains, not glaciers.

>By early 2001, Popocatepetl's glaciers had become extinct; ice remained on the volcano, but no longer displayed the characteristic features of glaciers such as crevasses.[4][5][6]

You listed dead stuff and "Glaciers" that don't even last the whole winter and are just Icecaps in a mountain.

why are chile and mexico beefing over ice?

Coyhaique is beautiful too. Would visit many times. Have you been to Torres Del Paine national park?

I rly like Chile, to visit is awesome but expensive, if you want to come it worth
>>
>>52204675
Is not expensive, the only expensive thing is to buy airplane tickets in the last minute. Travelling bu bus takes a lot of your time, and by plane it can by expensive if you don't plan your trip. But Uruguay is more expensive and Colombia will make a hole in your wallet.

Why are chileans on int so butthurt?

Say anything nice about any latin american country (but sometimes other countries too) and fucking chileans trying to one-up everyone.

Son, you are not going to change a scientific consensus as to what or what isn't a glacier by shitposting in a brazilian banana peeling forum.
Maybe you know more than scientists about it, in which case I think it is your responsibility to share that information.

There is one particular Chilean doing this. He is just one faggot, you can recognize his posts after a while.
