Excellent article. Though as usual they blame it instantly on global warming. Which in essence is not an incorrect statement, it's just not man made global warming.

If the tropical belt widening is in fact happening, that could cause some serious effects on global weather as a whole. Combined with the fact that we may be heading into a new ice age could mean serious changes to the way we all live on this planet. Imagine if the arctic regions increased by even 20 degrees toward the equator. We would see people being squeezed into the central regions of the globe making for some drastic population shifts.

Alternatively if the equatorial regions grow more intense in heat it may become too hot for most to sustain life do do inability to raise animals, or grow crops, or even just because of intense heat.
