In this age of disinformation, I regard Andreas Antonopoulos as one of the purest sources of truth on Bitcoin. Whenever I have a question about anything related to crypto, I like to hear his perspective on the matter.Recently, I've been troubled by what to make of the noticeably prominent narrative that Bitcoin mining exacerbates global warming. Obviously, I'm not naive enough to believe that there are no political agendas involved in spreading this narrative. Nor am I ignorant enough to overlook what the real causes of global warming is. However, I'm not sure whether the environmental impact due to Bitcoin mining is significant enough (or has the potential to be significant enough in the future) to at least take this claim somewhat seriously.In this regard, I've been searching for videos of Andreas Antonopoulos addressing this question. I found one, but his answer was unsatisfactorily short. Could someone more informed than me summarize what his view on this issue is? Alternatively, if you have good ideas/sources addressing this topic, please do share!
