The compare the electric usage of bitcoin to third world shitholes that don't have a power grid yet, and say, "see?"

But, they never compare the electric usage to say... the modern banking system.

The reason bitcoin will be the new currency is that it is THAT much more efficient than the modern banking system. Far more energy efficient.

We should be hearing on the news, every night how farmers are switching to new and innovative ways to farm that don't require a tractor of flooding fields (err, irrigation by the old method)

Container gardening and hoop houses. We are going to need a LOT more, quickly.
