How big Greenland really is

He’s accomplished plenty - all terrible.

But even the terrible stuff, he doesn’t have much in the way of accomplishments. He signs some executive orders and the rare bit of legislation, he appoints some awful judges and cabinet members - but he doesn’t write the orders (or even understand them) nor know anything about the judges or cabinet members. So he can’t talk about them because he knows nothing about them - nor do his supporters.

They’re just a vague background noise, the “good things” his supporters credit him with, without being able to actually point at anything specific. So he more often takes credit for things he had nothing to do with, or which aren’t even real. In terms of real accomplishments that - and this is the important bit - the media will be reporting on (and which his non-stop distractions would distract from)? Not much of anything, really.

I don’t think it will be any sooner than 2350 before Greenland becomes GREEN and warm-ish year-long. As others have said, there is MUCH ice (miles deep) that will need to melt, and then the land will need to stabilize.

And there won’t appear arable land magically out of nothing. Soil is a product of thousand of years of play growth and often hundreds of years of care taking.

Yes. Someday Greenland will be a ‘temperate’ paradise roughly the size of the east coast of the USA through to the midwest (north-south). Someone compared it to the size of the Louisiana Purchase, and that really DOES look on target when you consider the corrected maps like the Dyson, etc. Still, I honestly doubt our civilization will still exist in several hundred years (to take advantage of the newly more-habitable land). With the inevitable resource wars that will come as everything from water to food sources grow scarce (or insufficient to population needs and economic capabilities), I do wonder what will be left and where they will be. I envision a new ‘Dark Ages’…and hopefully not a nuclear winter brought about by posturing idiots who will want to steal what isn’t theirs.

Because I agree with @sme that this is obligatory :slight_smile:
