NOVA: Volcano Above the Clouds (2003)

Theatrical Release Information  |  See Details About All Versions

NOVA accompanies geologists Volker Lorenz and Kevin Docherty throughout their trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro, where they fear the mountain's melting glaciers may result in landslides or a devastating volcanic eruption. Despite the potentially deadly outcome, the melting glaciers are also a necessity, as they play an integral role in nourishing the region's animal and plant life, as well as helping to fertilize the locals' crops. Among the sub-topics explored are the possibility of global warming, human interference, and the effect an eruption or loss of glacial water would have on nearby villages. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide
