Many companies that is using bitcoin and the blockchain particularly some ICO's recently are being launch involving the betterment, improvement or something that will sustain our environment but is it enough to do its part or what it promises in its vision and mission? because the next tough part after the launch is how can they implement it effectively using bitcoin or the blockchain? are the world ready for it?
Unfortunately no. As much as these so called companies promise to save the environment through bitcoin this will merely scratch the surface. The number 1 contributor of pollution that slowly destroys the environment is actually Us. No matter how many companies joined forces to save the environment it will all came down to us, being the most dominant species and consumer of natural resources given by the environment if we dont stop polluting our oceans and exhausting our energy there will be no changes at all.
Take bitcoin mining for example. It consumes a lot of energy and also include fossil fuel consumption that contributes to the greenhouse effect that resulted into global warming. Unless we change our way of life and we learn how to dump our wastes properly then we cant provide a lasting solution to our environmental problems.
Any production leads to an external environment. So we will not stop making cars, plastic, rubber. The main thing in this problem is to create conditions for minimal impact. A better program to restore damaged eco-systems.
