    Greenlands heating would be slow at the beginning due to the snow reflecting most of that heat with time the heating accelerates and Greenland will experience Isostatic rebound. The landscape might be similar to Canada or Scandinavia today but all the lakes will eventually dry out and it would be a desert. If Greenland can actually capitalize on its recourses it might end up getting very wealthy

    Greenland would lose its ice but how long would it take Australia to develop glaciers? Sea levels would initially rise because Greenlands glaciers would melt faster than Australia would gain new ones, but I think that Australia's glaciers would eventually be larger than Greenland has now, resulting in an eventual drop in sea level.

    It would probably take longer for the ice to build up in the newly positioned Australia than it would to melt in Greenland. But eventually it might lower sea levels since Australia is so much bigger

    This was exactly the point I was going to add. Australia’s larger size, over time, would accumulate glaciers possibly twice the size of Greenland’s, and result in Lower sea levels.

    The sea level would drop significantly after time because Australia is 3 times the size of Greenland and of course, would be covered in ice

  • @astrospeedcuber

    Greenland would definitely benefit from this change. It would be much easier for them to attain more independence from denmark or even completely become their own nation. The warmer climate would although shrink their territory as much of Greenland is just ice, the amount of usable and habitable land currently in Greenland is far smaller than what the island would end up with after this swap. Greenland would have access to cheap and plentiful supplies of food and pretty much everything they need from South-East Asia as well.

    If Greenland and Australia swapped places then all Greenland ice will melt thus increasing global sea levels but ice sheet will start forming in Australia and since Australia is so big then I think gradually sea levels will fall sharply because now three times more water will be taken away to form the Australian icesheet.

    The Southern part of Australia should still have a relatively livable climate, but those poor Darwinians and Queenslanders will certainly be upset. I imagine that Europe in general would also get a fair bit colder with all that freezing cold land mass to their north-west replacing the relatively warm North Atlantic Ocean. Greenland's natural environment would certainly be decimated, but the warmer climate would certainly provide it's people with some interesting new economic opportunities.
