"The warmest year on record is now 1934. 1998 (long trumpeted by the media as record-breaking) moves to second place. 1921 takes third. In fact, 5 of the 10 warmest years on record now all occur before World War II." To be sure, the actual effect on warming increases may be minor, but the psychological impact is huge.
