Britain as a tropical hellhole

RE: Britain as a tropical hellhole
Of the whole article, this part caught my eye:
They claim global warming will send temperatures soaring and trigger mass food shortages.


So, basically, we'd become like Greece?

To be fair, the only way we could become tropical would be a realignment of the global axis. Highschool kids all know the equator is hotter because it gets direct sunlight, while we get a slightly more diluted stream. So, for us to become tropical, we'd need either a global axis shift, or a doubling of greenhouse gasses (before anyone goes into CO2 emissions, H2O molecules are over 90% of the greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, and the ocean doesn't have the capacity to double in size and release those levels of emissions. Neither do we have the capability to increase our emissions to even 10% of the oceans production).

Sounds like scare mongering based on sparse realism of facts all taken out of context. Either that, or they're letting us know about a global shift.
