Reply to comment by DixenSyder in Would an arcology be conceivably possible? by peregrinkm

This response I go back and forth about. I think that, depending on how these equatorial ecosystems change in response to the climate, it is possible for desertification to occur, hindering viability. Deforestation is definitely beginning to take it's toll and could potentially cause an ecosystem collapse, leading to said deserts forming.

But, I think we're still too much into the early stages to form a solid hypothesis one way or the other.

There’s so much reforesting going on at the same time, too. Like you said, though, early stages. We’ll see what time reveals
