I think people are so disconnected from food production that they don't understand how extreme weather events can dramatically impact crop growth. You can't just air condition the soybean fields, and you can't eat fossil fuels.
uhhh I get my food from Whole Foods, sweatie, not some dirty field
A couple years back there was a chili sauce shortage because drought and extreme heat were affecting pepper crops. These plants literally evolved in hot climates and even they're struggling.
It got so hot a few years ago in my area that entire onion crops were lost. The soil got so hot it cooked the onions underground.
Also, just because northern latitudes become warmer doesn't mean any of the other ecological conditions are appropriate for your warm climate crops.
