If this articles theory is correct, and that "deforestation" is causing Kilamanjaro to not be able to accumulate increases in snow, then the hypothesis is that Kilamanjaro is melting not because of global warming, but rather instead from deforestation.
Can we then assume that deforestation all of the world, when the effects are combined, reduces moisture carried in the air, and therefore causes ice caps to seem like they are melting only because the air isn't carrying enough moisture to replenish snow supplies.
THERFORE. There is no global warming. Instead, it is "global drying".
