I don't think PoW is the problem (and even if it is it's too late to change it without bankrupting the entire mining industry, it's not like it's a niche like dogecoin mining is), but rather pressure needs to be applied to ASICs manufacturers to make miners that draw less power.
Here in PC and mobile devices land, you can't just make a PSU that pulls as much power as you want because that comes with heavy prices for user experience, cost, and ultimately the revenue and sales.
A possible solution would be to have the EPA regulate the energy usage of miners and ban the product from the US if it fails energy regulations. The US does have some slice of the mining distribution so ASIC manufacturers will want to follow them to be able to sell their miners there.
Perhaps you are unaccustomed to people disagreeing with you? Nothing I said was intended to be aggressive or angry. Perhaps slightly exasperated, but I've been answering similar questions here for a decade now, so I'm not really bothered by it at all. It's just the same old same old all over again.
