Yes true.
But
There are stats.
More than 55% of the Bitcoin mining energy comes from the sustainable energy sources. This report was published 2 years ago.
It may be more than that.
Also much of the energy comes from wasted energy, the energy which we’re going to waste anyway.
e.g. Ercot & IRIS in Texas, USA.
Just see how electricity producers have partnered with Bitcoin miners to consume their excess energy at the time of the low demand.
Bitcoin mining industry is the fastest industry approaching net zero in the history of the world.
