    Carbon offsets is in my opinion are not solutions, they are excuses to continue environmentally destructive manufacturing and consumption practices. Things like paying for trees to be grow don't account for the damage done to the environment by the carbon you've released before the trees can even start filtering it out there.

    The data used in this video is based on findings of the "older" ETH Proof-of-Work mechanism. The newer ETH 2.0 implementation lowers power consumption significantly. Blockchain technology is constantly evolving to provide better, more efficient solutions for consensus mechanisms.
    We created this video to provide factual, un-opinionated insight based on a recent study, with the idea to spark a well-informed conversation.

      Is there any further source on when this change to ETH 2.0 could happen? As far as I know ETH 2.0 is only a concept atm?

    Thank you so much for this video. I'm just starting to familiarize myself with the cryptomarket, and this video educated me more about its negative impact on our planet.

    So doesnt this mean that its the power sources that is the enviromental issue and not the technology itself? I would love to see what the enviromental impact would be if the entire operation happened in a country with high ammounts of clean energy, like Norway/Sweden.

    This is really interesting. Well, what do you think of the platform carb0nfi? They pays you to be carbon neutral. Incentivize you to offset footprints. I think this will be really helpful for the space.

    Everything that the consumer society has in their homes, from their 80 inch TVs to their electric cars produces more carbon footprint than some vulgar nfts (jpegs), the energy required to manufacture physical products is infinitely greater than that used in the emission of a virtual item. Nfts and cryptocurrencies are the scapegoat to which it is easy to blame global warming (as if that will solve anything lol). Meanwhile, just making the batteries of a Tesla consumes tons of water and making the rest of the car itself (chassis, electronics, upholstery, tires..) has a gigantic carbon footprint that everyone pretends to ignore. In my day this was called hypocrisy.

    Sorry but the calculations in this video are false due to your misunderstanding of how cryptocurrency transactions and interactions work.

      Hello Ardem. Could you provide us with more info on what you think is incorrect? We'll gladly look into it.
