My conspiracy theory with this Greenland thing: Those in power now are deliberately destroying the world so it can be "rebuilt the right way". Greenland is in a position on the globe to become quite a pleasant climate. Once the ice melts it will be one of the best places on earth to live. Not to mention the huge amount of natural resources that will become available. Its also currently a politically isolated area, so when WW3 wipes out half the population it will most likely remain untouched. (Though tbf if trump makes moves on it that wont be the case). I don't think the current admin is even really aware of why Greenland is important, save for a few people who implemented project 2025.
removes foil hat
Wouldn’t it become colder if the Atlantic current gets interrupted?
to add: when the polar ice caps melt it will be positioned directly in a newly available shipping route
