Even those of us who thought trees would thrive with more CO2 were aware that would not solve climate change as long as we keep cutting down rain forests.
Most of us also have a rough idea about how many trees grow in the Sahara, so lack of water being a problem shouldn't come as a surprise. I would say that the smart ones expected the worlds deserts to grow, and that the rain forests would have to expand north and south to compensate, which means planting more rainforest, not cutting down the existing areas.
