It's time to pull the rug from under Bitcoin's climate destruction
 |
 | | |  | | Kathleen — | | It's time for us to demand that the world's largest digital currency, Bitcoin, clean up its climate-destroying code — and we'll need every single Greenpeacer alongside us to make so much noise that financial institutions stop investing in Bitcoin's climate destruction. | | Bitcoin is polluting our planet and keeping coal-fired and fossil fuel power plants running to feed its energy-hungry system — and nine major finance companies are making Bitcoin's pollution possible by investing in its expansion. | | Our planet's future is on the line — so please, will you chip in $10 toward our crucial $25,000 goal to power all Greenpeace's important work pressuring these financial institutions to honor their climate pledges and stop fueling Bitcoin's climate destruction? | | | | Bitcoin consumes as much electricity as entire countries due to its energy-hungry system called Proof-of-Work, and most of that electricity came from fossil fuels globally last year, with dirty coal being the largest single source. The result? Air, water, and noise pollution across the planet and a BIG lifeline for the fossil fuel industry. | | Despite making climate and sustainability pledges, the world's biggest financial players are investing in Bitcoin at a big cost to our climate and communities across the planet. | | If we're going to go toe-to-toe with Wall Street and demand change, we won't win without you: so please, Kathleen, rush $10 right now to help Greenpeace USA take this fight straight to Wall Street and demand that financial institutions stop propping up Bitcoin's climate destruction and live up to their climate pledges. | | | | Thank you for standing with us.
