my trip to greenland

i am taking a trip to greenland for some reserch.

here are some cool facts aboout greenland
Greenland is one of the largest islands in the world. It is north the location,which is at the point where the Atlantic meets the Arctic Ocean.
that means that Greenland is completly surrounded by cold ocean currents, so the coasts are constantly reseving ice cold water.

combineded with the radiation of the cold from the inland ice, gives Greenland its frizing climate.
which can make it up to around 20° C it is pritty cold.
