Stop generating electricity using coal etc.
Generate electricity only from:
- Solar
- Wind
- Hydro
- Nuclear
And other non-fossil sources.
Using fossil sources for electricity is unethical, full stop. Doesn’t matter if you are using the electricity for PoW, or for baking cookies or for feeding kittens, or what-have-you.
Fossil energy is the problem. Not PoW.
- speedgoose 3y agoI would say they are both a problem.
- xigoi 3y agoYes, so as long as coal is going used to generats electricity, wasting electricity is unethical.
