That doesn't matter really. It's just energy "wasted" with artificial challenges. The only purpose of digging for hashes is to blow energy... Bitcoin apologists ignore the fact that there are alternatives.
There is just no future in that. No energy source is carbon neutral, much less resource-neutral.
Western life is too wasteful, we all need to cut back. Bitcoin doesn't fit humanity's future.
