    In your opinion is this topic related to the possibility of increased melting and cracking and sliding of ice off the land based Greenland Ice Pack?

    2012 and 2019 were record setting years for melting on Greenland....... is there any correlation with solar flares?

    that is like asking if rain has any relation to flooding

    the answer is 100% yes
    but how and in what intensity is more the question

    a big solar flare could wipe out nearly half the worlds population and render an entire continent un-inhabitable

    the primary issues with Greenland is global air pollution landing on the ice attracting sun instead of bouncing it off
    so the ice melts many times faster
    global ash from fires and volcanoes
    melt water lakes

    these all amplify the effect of increased solar activity by being an attractor of sun radiation, instead of a reflector of sun radiation
