We were told per news items that last year was the hottest on record – since records began in 1974. What happened to the records prior to 1974 that were news when they happened?
Alternate facts show the tree fruits and honey production is down because of cold, wet and windy conditions during spring.
Nature is not obeying – the computer-generated records and must be at fault.

A few weeks ago we were told by experts that the seawater temperatures were down on normal by 2 or 3 degrees this year. Then, when the whales beached, a few days ago another expert stated that it could have been caused by the higher sea temperatures. Also interesting is that 1973, when I arrived in NZ, was said to be, at the time, the highest on record. That may answer why the latest claim was since 1974. The reason that they start, as do many graphs, and 1974 is to "fit" their claims.
