Almost every Climate Change organization in the world is concerned with Greenland melting, NASA being one of them.
For several years, NASA has been monitoring the amount of ice in Greenland, to serve as an indicator of Climate Change. Greenland has more land ice than every other place in the world, aside from Antarctica. If all of the ice in Greenland melts, it will raise sea levels by more than 23 feet.
