Receeding snowcap on Mount Kilimanjaro

Receeding snowcap on Mount Kilimanjaro
As environment ministers from around the world gather in Marrakech to finalise the Kyoto Protocol, a Greenpeace team on Mount Kilimanjaro spoke with journalists covering the climate negotiations in Marrakech live via a video conference.

According to Greenpeace, Mount Kilimanjaro, one of the few places in the world where ice and snow can be found on the equator, could lose its entire ice field by 2015 because of climate change. This loss symbolises the fact that climate change may be felt first and hardest by the environment and people of Africa.
