Yes, and that's good news if you're Canadian or Siberian. But the vast majority of people live in places that will NOT become more fertile. So bad news over all.

And even for Canadian/Siberians there are a lot of issues that mean it's not just a blessing. Fancy a 400% immigration rate? Fancy no more ski-ing and having to buy aircon? Fancy no trees when insects normally killed by frost destroy them all?

"it will be ok for some people on average over a long period" could be worse but it's not good news...
