Playing On The Edge I Football In Greenland

  • On our planet’s largest island lives a population of just over 55,000 people, to whom football is more than a national sport. It's the reason Greenlanders keep fighting. Despite having less than 6 months a year to play outdoors, a national team that FIFA refuses to recognise, and a national championship that lasts just one week each summer, football is at the heart of every town across this ice-strewn country.
    Meanwhile, Greenland is changing rapidly. Traditional livelihoods and Inuit culture are under threat. Through the long, dark, Arctic winters, Greenlanders learn to adapt to the impacts of climate change.

    It's a simple process:
    1. COPA90 uploads a video
    2. I watch it
    3. Life is better

      If you will start saying "technology that is suppressed and cheap" instead of "climate change"- we can maybe get somewhere. OR you can believe the solar is for the climate, not for the fact that every panel has to be changed ($$$$$) every 30 years. "climate change" is brainwashing to fight the people who are being brainwashed to believe nothing is changing- both sides brainwashed by the profiteer. Or you can ignore the fact we had engines that didn't need fuel built since the 1920s. Tesla lost because he didn't have anything to sell. WAKE UP. Stop parroting terms that have been planted in your head by people who don't care about the purity of others that you do. I believe you have the best of intentions. Just no logic, gullible. Even if everything was perfect, we would still have "climate change." It never stays the same.

    ❤ I see only a picture of a goal with the text : Playing On The Edge . I hear , a foreign language , I imagine might be Danish , the language of Denmark , or maybe Norwegian or Swedish . The languages of Sweden and Norway ! ❤ Hopefully we might one day see a 6 a side team playing in The Plymouth Hope charity football Tournament maybe !? In Plymouth , UK ! ❤
    I would be delighted to holiday in Greenland maybe one day , if I could obtain a Visa , or enter some how legally . ❤
    What beautiful , relaxed voices . With a calm tone . The language is quite poetic and the rhythm and emotion of the speaker can be noticed.
    The age, and identity. Weight and gender , might be guessed . Also , the stress levels . ❤

    Great video again 👍... It wud be nice if u cud make a video about bosnian derby Zrinjski - Velez (i saw ur video about Zeljeznicar - Sarajevo). Zrinjski and Velez is local derby, they play in bosnian cup finals (17.5. one game on neutral field). That derby is specific in more ways, maybe unique. One club is bosnian, other croatian (Bosnia is country of 3 nations: bosniacs, croats and serbs), and these 2 clubs are parts of different religion, one are muslims, other are catholics (there is also 3rd religion in Bosnia and Herzegovina: orthodox, which are serbs in general). I know quality of football is not what u can see in the rest of europe, but still intensity is there. Hope u will make it also because there are only few videos about this derby and they didnt cover it up like they supposed to. Sorry for long post, cheers dude.
