Snows of Kilimanjaro Myth Attacked!

J.J. Jackson* | June 15, 2007

Every time you turn around there is another nail in the Global Warming is manmade coffin:

The shrinking snow cap on Africa’s Mount Kilimanjaro is not due to global warming, a new study has found.

The iconic white capped mountain just below the equator in Tanzania has become emblematic of the threat of climate change, which scientific studies claim are behind shrinking glaciers and mountain snow cover around the world, as well as the retreating polar ice caps.

But researchers in Austria and the US say that Kilimanjaro’s snow cover has been shrinking for more than a century and most of the retreat was in the first half of the 20th Century. This does not fit the pattern of global warming, the impacts of which have predominantly been seen only in recent decades.

The report cites solar radiation and sublimation (that’s ice going directly into vapor phase) for the loss.

But don’t worry, the snows of Kilimanjaro will still be used by the enviro-marxists as PROOF of mankind’s assault on the environment and rape of Mother Earth.
