@cjjacobsJacobs @CDU @JuliaKloeckner @annewill 1. Various questions need to be asked:
a) Is the #earth getting warmer? Answer Yes (but was ven warmer in the past)
b) Human impact on climate (CO2)? A: Yes, but science differ on size of impact.
@cjjacobsJacobs @CDU @JuliaKloeckner @annewill 2.
c) #Germany produces 2% of all CO2 - So if we all live in tents tomorrow & only ride bicycles will it make a big difference? A: No, but the Chinese & Americans won't stop laughing!

@cjjacobsJacobs @CDU @JuliaKloeckner @annewill 3.
So I like a debate on points a) to c) purely based on #science (and "a consensus of paid lobbyscientists" is not science, but politics) & come up with workable solutions.
PS: Currently #China produces around 26% of all man-made CO2.

Great points on #BitcoinMining energy consumption by @aantonop:
1. Energy used by Fiat #currencies are hidden yet enormous;
2. #Bitcoin incentivises #greenenergy via economic benefits to #energycompanies as a store of value for non-distributable energy.

With Fiat currencies we're not questioning the costs of global payment networks, data centres for payment services providers and banks, their office buildings, computers, printing/minting/transportation of notes/coins and so on. It's taken for granted.
The latter, where unused energy of wind/solar that exceeds battery storage capacity can produce #Bitcoin, thus shortening the return on investment of renewable energy. This return can then be used to reinvest in real energy storage capacity.
