What happened to Al Gore's prediction about the snows of Kilimanjaro?

Al Gore predicted that the snows of Kilimanjaro would disappear within a decade, but this prediction proved to be inaccurate. While it still snows on Kilimanjaro today, the overall trend is concerning, with 2024 recording the lowest snowfall on record for the mountain. Despite the inaccuracy in the timeline, the underlying concern about glacier loss is valid. Since 2000, global warming has led to the disappearance of thousands of glaciers around the Earth, highlighting that while specific predictions may not materialize exactly as forecasted, the broader climate change impacts remain serious and observable.
