The process of Bitcoin mining wastes around 0.6% of the global energy.
The world is not in a energy crisis. There are enough oil, gas and electricity to cover the global demand at an affordable price.
The three main factors causing energy prices to go thru the roof are:
1. The so called "Green deal" in Europe and all those green fanatics, who want to dump nuclear energy and fossil fuels completely, because it will "save the planet".
2.The money printing machines of the Federal Reserve and the other big central banks around the world.
3.The sanctions against Russia (I'm not a fan of Putin).
There's no point of wasting our time with the Anti-Bitcoin and pro-Ethereum FUDsters. They will keep preaching their nonsense.
It is not a "saving the world" in quotes, it is actually saving the world for sure. I mean you could believe that the world is in danger or not, but you could believe that it is cleaner, there is no fact disputing that, renewable energy is cleaner and why wouldn't we want cleaner world?
What would make it so bad if we had a world where we didn't hurt the world we live in? Why is that so bad? I agree that financially it is not possible as of right now, but moving towards that small by small doesn't sound like a bad thing neither.
Plus, the climate change is something we all have been warning about, and yet nobody does anything about it, when there are fires all around the world and oceans rise to a level where cities are gone, will it be okay if you just came here and say "sorry I didn't believe it"? That would be too late and it is not enough, we do not want you to realize your mistake, we want to prevent you from realizing it.
