I actually think your point is a good one. There are a lot of places in the world where independence would be obviously preferable to the current situation but I don’t think Greenland is one of those places, at least it isn’t obvious. But I wouldn’t say that the dream of independence is gone from Greenland if they desire. Global warming will, after all, probably make the periphery of Greenland more habitable (like the Medieval Warm Period, before the cold Maunder Minimum, when it was farmed by Vikings), even as it ravages the glaciers.
