Wow, that looks like a reliable non-biased report.
Sorry, 5-6,000 people can not live on an ice shelf. Vikings relied on cattle, sheep, and fish for their primary survival in winter. We KNOW there were cattle and sheep, so obviously it was green. Nice little pretend "historian" you have vouching for you.

"At least one of the farms we've examined shows evidence of a tough winter," McGovern says. "We find the bones of a number of cows--about the same number that lived in the barn--and mixed in with them are a bunch of ptarmigan feet, also famine food. Mixed in with that are the bones of one of the big hunting dogs." Cut marks on the bones suggest the dogs were butchered; even the cow hooves were eaten. "It looks as though they ate the cows and then ate the dogs. It looks like hard times."

Hmm... so cows require grass. Grass is Green. Nope, no way Greenland could have ever been green.
