Synopsis of NOVA: Volcano Above the Clouds

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
