many governments are always looking for reasons to inhibit the progress of bitcoin, we know that the electricity used to mine bitcoin is not so much compared to the power needed by large companies, so this is just a reason that is made, but the bitcoin currency will always evolved because of its global nature, not in one country, but bitcoin is in the whole world.
Hey this is very true as bitcoins mining does not consumes high levels of resources as is previously claimed, there is no reliable research to prove this. All the rumours we read about bitcoins consuming more energy than cities, and harming the environment are false propaganda. It's pertinent to note that bitcoins miners have been infact trying to use renewable energy to mine bitcoins, and in their own ways benefiting the environment.
