The way they sell it, warming means a lesser availability of fresh

If all of Greenland will melt, the people who are suddenly

Not wrong there. In fact huge areas of Canadian, Alaskan and Siberian
tundra would be really quite nice places to live. Scarcely worse than
Scotland

Except for buildings and equipment sinking into the melting tundra :-D
