A Question for Pelosi - How Did Greenland Get Its Name?

Nancy Pelosi continues her world tour next week by making a stop in Greenland:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and a group of House members are planning to go to Greenland and Europe next week as part of what her critics have dubbed the “Global Warming Tour.”

Since this is a "Global Warming Tour", I wish some intrepid reporter would ask Ms. Pelosi how Greenland got its name? She might find out that during the Medieval Warm Period (between 850 and 1300 AD) the Vikings discovered this particular part of the world and named it Greenland, not because they had an ironic sense of humor, but because it was green. The earth was much warmer back then and Greenland was a verdant paradise. Then things cooled off, the Viking colonies died out, and it became largely an ice-covered wasteland.

Isn't green better?
