Why Greenland? The world's largest island plays a key role in climate change
Briefly

"Greenland is where climate change, scarce resources, tense geopolitics, and new trade patterns all intersect, making it central to geoeconomic competition on a global scale."
"Think of Greenland as an open refrigerator door or thermostat for a warming world; it is warming four times faster than the rest of the globe and contains vast resources that are becoming more accessible."
"Locked inside Greenland are valuable rare earth minerals needed for telecommunications, uranium, and billions of barrels of oil; this makes nations like the U.S. increasingly interested."
"If all of Greenland's ice melts, it would equate to a sea-level rise of 24 feet, dramatically reshaping coastlines and influencing global weather patterns."
