To pick one, all of our major food crops are dependent on lowest, mean and peak temperature during the growing season with a given number of sun hours during the season for optimal production. If you change those temperatures, you impact your food production unless you can also change the inclination of the Earth in its orbit.

You impact food production, but in some cases positively.

Well if the warming is extreme and very quick, it would be almost universally negative (for quite awhile, if perhaps not permanently) but the idea that we are going to have such a sudden massive increase has hardly been established as fact, or even as something that is very likely.
