Continental glaciers cover Antarctica and most of Greenland because these are the coldest places on Earth, with temperatures that allow snow to accumulate and not melt. Over time, the accumulation of snow compacts into ice, forming massive ice sheets that spread across the land.

What does Greenland look like?
Greenland is known for its vast ice sheet covering about 80% of its land area, with glaciers, fjords, and coastal cliffs. The ice sheet has a rugged terrain of mountains and valleys, with coastal regions that are more habitable and support vegetation. Greenland's landscape is characterized by its stunning natural beauty and unique blend of ice and land formations.
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:)
Why do few plants grow in Greenland?
