Kilimanjaro is a volcano. That might have something to do with it...

[mrsmel]

Just in time to buttress algore’s investments.

The ice that covered Yosemite valley has also all melted. Leaving a beautiful valley that is now a National Park...the world will survive no matter what happens to Mt Kilimanjaro.

0bamas fault!

[guitarplayer1953]

How long have these mountain peaks had unmelted glaciers on them? Thousands or millions of years?

[doc1019]

Algore will make another billion off this news. ;-)

[cripplecreek]

Oh well.

Mts. Kilimanjaro and Kenya are directly on the equator! I’d bet that over the past 6,000 years, the white caps of those mountains have been steadily decreasing. It may be more noticeable now since Africa has been in a 30-year drought cycle. Ergo, less snow

[ClearCase_guy]

We came out of the Little Ice Age in about 1850. And ever since, some glaciers have been shrinking.

I feel no guilt.

Say it isn't so!!!!

[Dysart]

I find the timing of this suspicious.

[edcoil]

Good, now maybe we can visit it.

[jersey117]

I won’t be losing any sleep over it.

The debate actually is over…and the idea that human emissions of carbon dioxide will cause any significant degree of global warming has been categorically refuted and falsified. The empirically-measured change in the amount of energy radiating away from the Earth as a function of changes in sea surface temperature totally falsifies the IPCC climate models--and more importantly, completely falsifies the anthropogenic global warming hypothesis—total, categorical falsification, not simply invalidation of the alleged "proof" based on computer climate models:

• On the determination of climate feedbacks from ERBE data (peer-reviewed scientific paper);
• RESPONSE TO US SECRETARY OF ENERGY ON CLIMATE STATEMENT (explanation for non-scientists)
• Basic Greenhouse Equations "Totally Wrong"
• IPCC'S FATAL ERRORS
• Climate Change: Statement of Dr. William Happer before the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee
• The Skeptics Handbook

Is that how that frozen leopard got halfway up the northern slope?......

And in a related story, the Glaciers that historically covered the Great Lakes of Northern USA have melted, and have not so recently completely dissappeared ! !
However, the Great lakes have been known to still freeze during the North American Winter, and are expected to again Freeze this year.....That would be 2010-11, in the Al Gorian period of excessive Hot Air Bloviation period.

The glaciers that deposited many large rocks in Northern Iowa just can't be found anyplace any more. Nobody seems to be worrying about it.

I did visit Alaska in September and can report that I saw many glaciers. The one a sea level just outside of Juneau is reported to be declining, but didn't hear that about any of the others.

Snow cap disappearing from Mount Kilimanjaro

Oh noes! Then those poor polar bears will have nowhere to hide from the gorillas!

[Lady Jag]

OMG!   The ice in my drink melted!!!
