Well, Greenland is BIGGEST on a mercator projection but on a Robinson it is smaller because the lines of latitude remain parallel, and lines of longitude are curved as they are on the globe. This results in lesser distortion near the poles. So your answer is most likely, no. DEPENDING on what map you look at.

What is the Robinson project?

Arthur H. Robinson was professor emeritus of geography and cartography at the University of Wisconsin. Robinson's Projection transforms the spherical earth onto a flat map by a method that shows overall shapes, sizes, positions, and appearances of the earth's countries with less distortion than on most flat world maps. (and that, my dears, should earn anyone an A- at the least.)

Why is most of Greenland covered with snow throughout the year?

Greenland is not near the Equator. The warmest countries are on or near the Equator. Because of the location, Greenland is very cold up far in the North. Everything far South or North of the Equator is usually cold. Ex. Antartica. In my opinion, Greenland should be called Iceland and Iceland should be Greenland considering Iceland is warm and Greenland is cold:)
