Manmade CO2 has little impact on the geothermal heating which is the component melting Greenlands ice.

“The perimeter and ocean-borne ice is shrinking in acreage but the ice in the main body of Greenland is getting thicker.”

So... Greenland’s Ice Cap is getting fat.

However, its report acknowledged that temperatures in southern Greenland during the 1930s and 1940s were at least as warm as in recent years.

Imagine how warm it was in the 10th - 12th centuries when Europeans farmed and grew livestock on Greenland.

But this winter Greenland has frozen more than in the last 10 years and the Arctic Ocean has frozen at a record rate. And notice they say “the last 50 years” to avoid having to mention the even warmer 1930-40’s.
