Greenland, Climate Change and the Melting Ice
Greenlanders use two words to identify their land: Kalaallit Nunaat. In Greenlandic, Nunaat is “land” and Kalaallit is “Greenlanders”; The country of the Greenlanders. Kalaallit Nunaat is part of the Kingdom of Denmark called Rigsfaellesskabet: Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
