>>...there is an argument that there could be an upside for 
beekeepers. There may be crops grown in areas that did not support 
them before.  

This would be the case in the eastern US where plant species [and 
agricultural crops] would gradually move northward.  In the middle 
and western US, on the other hand, vast desert would open up.
