I wish I could agree -- but if I recall correctly, the fastest-reproducing regions of the world are closest to the Equator.

Cheers!

..the fastest-reproducing regions of the world are closest to the Equator.

In an Ice Age they become temperate. The current temperate areas will become polar/arctic. The Tropics will only occur twice each year during the equatorial summers. So Tropics become Temperate with two short Tropical summers. Gonna be interesting to see what can be grown in those short half seasons. At least that is my best guess at present. How soon can that all occur ? We best be asking the CIA, since they already investigated the affects of cooling way back in the early 1970's.

I'm addressing arable land that is actively farmed to feed people. Most of the food is produced in North America. If the temps drop too low, the crops won't grow.
