Mt.Fuji is experiencing the longest snowfall delay ever

This year, Japan has experienced its hottest summer since records began in 1898. The average temperature of this country in the months of June, July and August was 1.76 degrees Celsius higher than the usual average. This unprecedented rise in temperature has had significant effects on the environment and the lives of Japanese people.

According to the scientific news department of Tekna Technology Media, one of the most obvious effects is the unprecedented delay in snowfall on Mount Fuji. This mountain, which is considered a national symbol of Japan, usually sees its first snowfall in early October. But this year, no snow has been observed on the top of this mountain until the end of October. This is the longest snow-free period on Mount Fuji in 130 years.

Meteorological experts consider the cause of this phenomenon to be the continuation of hot and dry weather in Japan, as well as the change in weather patterns caused by global warming. This phenomenon has sounded a serious alarm for the environment and economy of Japan.

Mount Fuji is one of the most important tourist destinations in Japan. The delay in snowfall can negatively affect the tourism industry of this country. Also, the reduction of snow cover in Mt.Fuji can affect the ecosystem of the region as well as water resources. Many local communities around Mount Fuji depend on snow-related activities such as skiing and winter sports. Reduced snow cover can affect the economy of these communities.

The increase in global temperature caused by the emission of greenhouse gases is one of the most important reasons for this phenomenon. On the other hand, the El Nino phenomenon has also influenced the increase in temperature in Japan and the delay in the snowfall in Mt.Fuji. The unprecedented delay in snowfall on Mount Fuji is a clear sign of climate change and its destructive effects on the environment and human life. This phenomenon shows the importance of immediate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat global warming.
