We have a plan ₿! Why #Bitcoin is the human and ecological opportunity for our planet.

It's a science!

Bitcoin: 12 words in your head.

Fiat: the words of others in your head.

A reduction of CO2 therefore makes sense and without panic, but with consistency.

We see Bitcoin as a wonderful opportunity for economic disinflation and as a promoter of renewable energy expansion. We are skeptical about purely centralized solutions - for the following reasons: dysfunctionality, false economic incentives (expansion of the money supply), possible surveillance.

It's not just about the article itself, it's all about the studies that are mentioned in it. For example:

https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ac2966/pdf

Greater than 99% consensus on human caused climate change in the peer-reviewed scientific literature.

Of course, the earth would regain equilibrium. The problem is the speed of climate change and there is a risk that several climate tipping points will soon be reached (including the thawing of permafrost, which releases methane, which is another accelerator) - with fatal consequences for many people around the world (floods, droughts, hunger). Strong migration movements are to be expected. Therefore, we should do everything we can to slow down the warming of the earth.

I agree with you, CO2 is not a pollutant per se, but a valuable part of the earth's ecosystem. However - as Paracelsus said - the quantity makes the poison.

CO2 "seals" the atmosphere, causing the heat from the incoming rays of the sun to accumulate (greenhouse effect).

A reduction of CO2 therefore makes sense and - as you rightly say - without panic, but with consistency.

Replying to Avatar Guy Swann

Agreed. But I do feel obligated to caveat because its not that the word is "triggering," but merely that it is deeply false based on what the establishment attaches to the idea.

It's just that the dominant parts of that narrative they spin are total lies:

• It causes more and terrible storms (no it doesn't)

• It causes more droughts and forest fires (no it doesn't)

• CO2 is a pollutant (no it isn't)

• That it is bad for plant & animal life to have more CO2 or for the planet to get warmer (no it isn't)

• That its bad for human life for the planet to get warmer (no it isn't)

• That the planet wouldn't be getting warmer if we weren't driving around in cars (not remotely true)

• That it will keep getting hotter forever until everything bursts into flames (not only not true based on it's more base premises, but CO2 as a greenhouse gas has a diminishing effect, basically a "bitcoin halving" like warming effect where no matter how much more we add it will simply stop contributing to the GHE at a certain point - even if it is the most important factor for a warming planet, which is not at all proven or even very sensible)

If you take all these simple facts out of the foundation of the narrative, there just isn't that much left. And it distracts from the REAL problems we have in energy & establishes a framing that will make these problems worse, instead of better.

I ramble here only to make a point. That mindset is absolutely critical, and we have to stop submitting to a frame that is clearly wrong & forces us into a model of thinking that will do more damage than good. But generally I actually agree with your note 😆

Sorry Guy, but I disagree. CO2 is the biggest driver of current climate change, with a large human contribution. CO2 seals the earth's atmosphere (heat is trapped); as a result, the planet heats up more due to the incoming rays of the sun (greenhouse effect).

Is climate change caused by humans?

Hundreds of research institutions worldwide agree that the current rapid rate of climate change is caused by human activity. A US study ( https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/ac2966/pdf )

analyzed 88,125 climate studies and concluded that 99% of the studies agree that humans play an overwhelming role in climate change. With the help of models, it is possible to simulate how the climate would have developed without anthropogenic influences and how it finally developed with those influences.

Here is a summary of many studies including evidence that there is a man-made part to climate change:

Some of the FFF people are convinced that an inflationary economic system is part of the environmental damage the world is experiencing. This thought led them to Bitcoin.
