Bitcoin mining, which is necessary to validate transactions on the blockchain, requires significant amounts of energy. Critics argue that the energy consumption associated with Bitcoin is unsustainable and contributes to climate change.
what do you think?
This is BS, They keep making this as a big issue while other industrial sector is the number contributor of Carbons in our ecosystem. Bitcoin mining energy consumption is just a small part on whats other industry using like plastic factory and other sector that focus more on combustions because it emits too much carbon that affects the environment.
Bitcoin is being use for donation on environmental movement. This compensate its contribution to the electricity consumption that is not too huge to give big impact in the environment.
