One reason climates won't simply shift is that the length of daytime and the changes in that during the year will stay the same.

Sweden will still be very dark during winter and those Mediterranean plants won't necessarily be able to deal with that.

I've seen videos of people in Canada building passive greenhouses to allow them to grow plants that typically require much warmer climates. Whether they grow and whether they taste good is a different question though....

Greenhouses are extremely successful here in Iceland.
