    Agriculture existed on Greenland a millenia ago and will so again and there is probably nothing we can do about it.
    Grapes were found on the North of the east coast of America and perhaps they will be found again.
    Lush forests were found on Spitsbergen at one time, maybe this will occur again? We mine its remnants today and releases the carbon they bound in coal burning power plants.
    As humans we move around where the nature will let us settle. We follow the retreating glacier and remove ourselves from their advances.
    We have done so since the dawn of man... it is only now that we want to impose our will on a ever changing nature. We want it stagnate and controlled.
