This is yet another case of “when you are a hammer all of your problems look like nails”. Yes, the icecaps of Kilmanjaro are melting… but is the cause of this anthropogenic global warming? Not very likely, despite the shrill warnings from the global warmistas. There are many other more likely causes, such as forest reduction in the areas surrounding Kilimanjaro. The loss of foliage causes less moisture to be pumped into the atmosphere, leading to reduced cloud cover and precipitation and increased solar radiation and glacial evaporation.
