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:)
