Let’s all move to the rainforest.

In other words, nobody has the faintest idea what, if anything, “climate change” will do to the rain forests.

but bad for US geopolitics. A dollar wasted on energy is a dollar paid to our enemies and adversaries. But most definitely a rapid thawing and evaporation of arctic ice will serve to push back the advancing desert and green up already green regions. The water’s going to combine with elements in the atmosphere the recharge the ozone layer and increase rainfall. Just in time for the next big shortage to be averted, the water shortage. And all that oil under the arctic opens up for upstreaming.

many ecosystem models assume

Any model that makes any assumptions at all is bound to run up against a real system that doesn't go along with the model. Any assumptions at all means that the models are subject to bias and fraud and errors. That being said, it is no wonder that the actual climate predictions made some 10 or 20 years ago, haven't come even close to being correct. An assumption made on a very complex system such as the climate of a planet with perhaps millions of variables, is bound to be incorrect or garbage. And as we all know, GIGO.

Rainfall in rainforests has a long, long way to drop before there is any possibility of them being ‘destroyed’. After all, they’re called ‘rain’forests rather than some other type of forest for an obvious reason.
