7. This is bad
However, throughout geological history, the rain forest has appeared and disappeared according to sea levels. At times, the amazon rain forest becomes a series of forested islands and the land bridge between North and south America is cut off. I do not know if this effectively deletes the forest or simply disrupts it a bit.

It matters because apparently the forest is going to disappear without an accompanying sea level rise. I would like to think that a million years from now it will be back, even if I won't be.
