I believe it is. The rate at which iso-climate lines are moving north is faster than a lot of species can move. Most fauna could be ok by that criteria alone, but most flora can't move so rapidly (a lot of tree species can only move 10m/10years).
And when the flora goes, a lot fauna does too.
Sure, the human species will survive. It certainly did with a few million of individuals for most of the time. But I believe we're already in the 6th mass extinction event, perhaps the biggest so far.
We're going to get a lesson from nature. The only question is how tough will it be. I believe large famines, wars, and a partial civilization collapse are coming.
