I understand where you're coming from with this, and empathize with your perspective to a degree - but I have a lot more faith in humanity and free enterprise than you seem to. Yes, if climate change models are remotely accurate, Greenland will become much more valuable and will attract commercial interests. I see this as a good thing, though - humanity will adapt to changing conditions. Individuals and communities will be impacted, some in positive and some in negative ways. In short, I wouldn't see this as "now people get an opportunity to fuck up this place, too" - I see it as "the loss of natural resources in some places is offset by their gain in others".
