If solar was the cheapest, then Bitcoin would be replacing other actually productive energy consumers and forcing them to fossil sources. So getting rid of Bitcoin would still be positive.

You can't just get rid of people doing calculations on computers, it's not going to happen without some pretty authoritarian, dystopian hell.

The problem needs to be solved at the source, burning fossil fuels needs to be stopped, today!
