The thing is that even the "not so vulnerrable" regions are going to be affected by human induced global warming to some extent. Anyone got any figures?

Dryness of the Amazon rainforests seems to be coincidental with excecss rain in the northern half of Australia and the lack of rain in the southern half of Australia. Simultaneously there seems to be a worryig number of reports of excess rain in the southern parts of South America. In Europe floods have been raging with unprecdented regularity, whilst in California fires are raging regularly due to repeated and lengthy droughts. Before we start quibbling about what is happening where, let's consider the fact that sea levels are in fact rising. That the ocean of the world react (in human terms) very slowly to changes in climate, should give any thinking person pause for thought. If they are reflecting the effects of climate change, shouldn't we be doing something about it? Just a thought. The point is not wherefore the dryness occurs but what happens IF it occurs.
