Which models you ask? Those ones that predict global desertification in 90 years. So granted that these climate models might be wrong and they have large error bars. But it seems to me that we are seeing evidence that warming is occurring at the UPPER end of those error bars. So maybe Earth will be a desert in 70 or 50 years instead of the 90 predicted.
