Snark Theorem Equivalent to the 4CT.

The "snark theorem" (paraphrased) says the statement that
"all snarks are non-planar" is equivalent to the 4CT.
The exsitence of a planar snark would prove the 4CT to be false; ie
1, A snark in not 3 edge colorable
2. Therefore the snark is cannot be 4 face colorable,
and the 4CT is false.
But is the absence of a planar snark sufficient to prove the 4CT true?
