"The researchers found that between 1980 and 2020, growing regions were more prone to experiencing too-cold temperatures. “The current climate, however, is characterised by too-hot conditions in every region,” they found, adding that “the vast majority of coffee regions never experience too-cold growing season temperatures”.
Article claims that between 2021 and 2023 (a span of 3 years)
these regions experienced "Too-hot conditions", prior it was too cold.
Ideal regions have climate similar to Hawaii, where it fluctuates between 16 and 28 degrees celsius, all year round.
Assuming I take the articles seriously:
Using your last 3 data points to make sweeping projections, when they counter the previous year's data doesn't seem like very good science.
