Why does it matter that Greenland is melting?

Greenland is an island covered in a sheet of ice that is over 3km
thick in places, containing 7.4 metres of average global sea
level rise. Due to climate change, it’s melting at an astonishing
rate. We meet some of the people being forced to rapidly adapt
their traditional ways of life. And find out why ice loss means
sea level rises for elsewhere in the world – but the opposite for
the island itself
