Well, except for the fact that the ground currently under glaciers is not suitable for farming and that much of the water used for farming comes from glaciers. There is no doubt that the loss of glaciers will worsen the hydrological situation for a lot of people. But in a sense, you are right. Many area that are currently too cold for farming will become viable.
Thatās OK, we have at least 5,000 years to prepare organic amendments for the heavy clay thatās soon to be top soil.

I remember as a kid Leonard Nimoy and other paid shills in the media scaring us with tales of an impending Ice Age.

Of course, this is a necessary price that businesses ā and consumers ā will have to pay now for the good of the planet long-term.

The elites own the oil companies as well as the media companies that push the climate hysteria. They control both sides.
Iām way more concerned about mine having to live as serfs in a new feudalism because we gave up our liberty as a response to fear programming.

Massive in the next 8? No. But we will definitely notice the beginnings of extinction for certain temperature sensitive species in the 2030s, if temps continue to rise.
Sea turtles off the top of my head. Coral reefs would be affected greatly.
Sea turtles have adapted to changing conditions for millions of years.

Well to be fair, rate of change matters. But they must have withstood some really fast ones, faster than now during that time frame.

They evolved 250 million years ago, look pretty heat and rapid change resistant to me.

If species die out, Iām excited for the new earth, populated by evolved species that were previously limited by predators. Blessed are the meekā¦

Above a certain temperature sea turtles are born female. The male population is declining at a rapid rate.
In Florida, in the last decade, 7 years of hatchlings were around 100% female, the 3 years that saw males, the rate was around 20% for them.
In Australia, they found 99% of their turtles in 2018 were born female.
What do you think will happen if it gets too hot, we only have females being born, and the last of the males die off?

Yet somehow they have survived far warmer climate in the past, look at the chart again. Seems to me, more females is a good strategy to increase population, not shrink it. You only need one rooster. The bulk, by a wide margin, of their span was much warmer than now.
Rapid change 250M years ago? The graph shows that temperature swing took 20 million years. How is that ārapidā change relevant to today?

No, look around 90 and 55 million.
